Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Policy, Politics and Economics with Year Abroad (60L2)

专业介绍

The Policy, Politics and Economics (PPE) degree offers students the opportunity to critically engage with and consider a range of contemporary real-world issues.

At the broadest, these issues might include considering the role of financial markets and the distribution of wealth; investigating the different forms and function of government, or questioning what such concepts as society and citizen might mean in the 21st century.

Unlike traditional single honours degrees, the Policy, Politics and Economics programme will enable students to encounter a variety of concepts, approaches and methods from the three disciplines of social policy, politics and economics. This offers students the opportunity to build a bespoke degree, drawing on the excellent research and teaching skills of three Schools within the College of Social Sciences.

In Year 1, students will undertake introductory modules in all three of the social science disciplines: social policy, politics and economics to establish a good social sciences foundation. A compulsory module, 'Global Issues, Global Responses' is at the core of the second year of studies. This interdisciplinary module will enable students to consider a range of important global issues and the responses to them at the international, regional and local levels. Students can also begin to tailor their learning to their developing interests. The third year will be spent abroad at a university in the EU or elsewhere in the world. There are a wide range of countries and universities from which students can choose. As well as a range of European universities, students may also choose from a range of current partners worldwide. These include countries in which a variety of different languages are spoken, including universities at which courses are taught in English. After completing the year abroad, students will return to the University of Birmingham to complete the final year of their studies when they will complete a dissertation.

As part of the final year, this course includes the opportunity to undertake a 'Professional Development' module as part of the optional module choices.
