BA Philosophy Politics Economics And Law

The major in Philosophy, Politics, Economics and Law (PPEL) is an interdisciplinary undergraduate major that provides students with an integrated curriculum, drawing on the methods and insights of philosophy, political science, and economics. Its aim is to provoke critical reflection on the relationship between different social institutions-political, legal, social, and economic. It emphasizes grappling with the moral and historical bases of political and economic life, while also equipping students with rigorous analytic thinking skills that are increasingly important in business, policy, law, and other fields.
