About the programme
Studying philosophy and politics together teaches you to think about matters of fundamental importance from a wider perspective. Experts in both of these complementary disciplines teach on this combined course. They work together to make this degree more integrated than similar courses run elsewhere.
You can also choose to spend three months working at Westminster or studying abroad.
