BA/BSc POLITICS, PHILOSOPHY AND ECONOMICS

It is important to decide whether you want to graduate with a BA or a BSc for your degree. If you choose to take both Economics modules - Mircroeconomics and Macroeconomics - next year then you will be able to take advanced Economics modules in your third year. If, however, you only take one of the two Economics modules this year, you will take the other in your third year. This decision will determine which degree you are awarded:

1) Students who pass at least 60 credits worth of dedicated third year Economics modules will graduate with a BSc Politics, Philosophy and Economics.

2) Students who pass dedicated third year Economics modules of at least 15 credits but less than two modules will graduate with a BA Politics, Philosophy and Economics.

3) Students who do not pass any third year Economics modules will graduate with a BA Politics and Philosophy with Economics.

With that information in mind, Year 2 students must take:

• At least 30 credits, but no more than 60 credits from each discipline of Politics, Philosophy and Economics

If you have any questions about these requirements, you should contact the PPE Lead, Dr Will Jones.
