This three-year programme aims to provide an understanding of a range of central philosophical debates, together with a detailed education in economics. All major areas of philosophy are available for study, and the programme is run jointly with the highly regarded UCL Economics, where half your modules are taken.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

In both subjects, your first year offers  introductory lecture courses, which provide a foundation for later studies. These will provide a basis for your choice of modules in years 2 and 3 of the course. There is the option to write a  Dissertation.

You will study Philosophy and Economics on a roughly equal basis.

Upon successful completion of 360 credits, you will be awarded a BA (Hons) in Philosophy and Economics.
