About This Course
PPE provides a thorough grounding in all three disciplines that are core to the social sciences. The course is quite structured at first, but allows more choice and more specialisation with each successive year. This course provides both a well-rounded education in philosophy, politics and economics, and every opportunity for you to determine for yourself which subject or combination of subjects you would like to specialise in.
First Year
Students are introduced to: political science and political theory, to micro and macroeconomics, and to ethics and critical thinking. Students will take the core module Introducing PPE. They will also learn about researching and writing essays.
Second Year
Students will study the relationship between individuals and the state, how to analyse and work with economic data, and the philosophical principles underlying the social sciences.
Third Year
Students continue to deepen their understanding of all three disciplines, while paying more attention to the overlaps between them, such as political economy and critical theory. Students may apply to study abroad in third year.
Fourth Year
There is much more choice among specialised option modules in the final year. Students also have the option of continuing in the threediscipline version or of concentrating on only two disciplines.
Assessment
Generally, assessment will be by take-home essay and by exam-based essay in Philosophy and Politics, and by project and a combination of mid-term and end-of-term assignments in economics. Innovative online assessment will also be used throughout.
A number of trimester-long study opportunities will be offered with PPE universities in the Netherlands, Germany and Switzerland.
PPE programmes are scattered throughout many of the top universities in the world, attracting the best and most ambitious students and educating cohorts of politicians, civil servants, journalists and managers. All three disciplines share a commitment to rigour and problem-solving that will develop useful skills for any career–skills such as research, analysis, written expression and interpreting data.
Graduates may pursue a specialist Masters degree in Philosophy, Politics or Economics or progress to various interdisciplinary Masters degrees in related subjects.

- Quality Education (SDG 4)

- Decent work and economic growth (SDG 8)
- Reduce Inequalities (SDG 10)
- Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG 11)
- Peace, justice and strong institutions (SDG 16)
I chose to study Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) because the three subjects that it covers are driving forces behind how the world works. There is a huge overlap between the subjects and the three elements draw heavily from one another. The chance to study abroad or avail of an internship during third year is a fantastic opportunity, and was a motivating factor behind me choosing UCD. The content learned throughout this degree, particularly the analytical and critical thinking skills, is extremely applicable to real world careers. I would recommend PPE to ambitious students who are ethically motivated and interested in studying a practical, well-rounded degree.
