Our BA (Hons) Philosophy, Politics and Economics lets you explore the events and ideas that make up our world today. How are societies and political institutions influenced by economic forces? What difference do ideas and ideologies make? How do international treaties and conflicts shape people’s lives?
Three ways to explore the world
In this course, you’ll explore philosophical arguments, analyse political structures, and engage with economic models. You’ll gain a better understanding of our world, as well as developing your critical and reasoning skills and abilities to communicate clearly and articulately.
The broad scope of our department means you can study ethics and society, political institutions and financial markets. You can explore Indian philosophical thought as well as Western approaches. You also have the option of adding an International Relations element to your politics studies to develop a truly global perspective.
Tailor your degree
With the support of your supervisor, you’ll have the freedom to define the topic of your dissertation in your third year. Previous students have researched a range of subjects including bitcoin and crypto currencies, long-termism and sustainability, and the justification of war.
Want to add experience to your CV? Apply for one of the internships offered every year by the Richardson Institute for Peace Studies, based in our department. These are research projects in external organisations such as NGOs, think tanks, charities and faith-based organisations. We’ll also support you in finding placement opportunities in a range of organisations, from roles in arts and heritage organisations, to media and marketing agencies.
The University usually runs short, overseas study trips to give you the chance to experience a different culture. In the past these have included Malaysia, India, Ghana, China and the US, where we visited the J.F.K Presidential library, the United Nations and the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
Study Abroad and Placement Year options
You can apply to study Philosophy, Politics and Economics with a year abroad for the whole of your third year. In the past, destinations have included Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Netherlands and the USA. Another option is to study for a placement year in Year 3, before returning to Lancaster for Year 4. Students have worked with major businesses, public sector bodies, charities and NGOs.
