BA (Hons) Politics, Philosophy & Economics at Goldsmiths, University of London

This challenging and ground-breaking degree will help you understand how the economy is governed, how public policy gets made, and the ideas that shape our world. We offer a distinctive, fresh and critical take on the well-established combination of Politics, Philosophy and Economics (PPE), drawing on our strengths in social science and theory. You'll gain an introduction in the ideas and concepts that have shaped the world you live in, and learn to challenge established political and economic policies, institutions and methods.
