The BA (Hons) Philosophy and Politics at the University of York is an interdisciplinary degree that allows students to explore foundational ideas underpinning government and society, and the philosophical debates that drive political ideals. You will develop a strong grounding in both philosophy and political theory, learning critical thinking, analytical, and debating skills valued by employers. In the first year, students split their time equally between Philosophy and Politics through core and option modules. The program fosters engagement beyond the classroom through the Politics, Economics and Philosophy (PEP) Club and offers opportunities for study abroad, shaping a global perspective. Throughout the degree, you may tailor your studies with a wide range of module options.
