Overview

This Bachelor’s Degree is a three-year interdisciplinary programme taught entirely in English. Designed for curious and globally minded students, the programme bridges economics, political science, philosophy, and law to offer a comprehensive understanding of today’s most pressing global challenges - from energy transition and digital transformation to global governance and ethical decision-making. During the first two years of study, students establish a solid interdisciplinary foundation through an integrated curriculum encompassing economics, political science, philosophy, and law. The final year enables students to pursue a specialized area of study that reflects their academic interests and professional aspirations. Depending on their chosen pathway, students may concentrate on policy consulting and advising in multilevel governance, ethical decision-making and NGO governance, or international organizations and geopolitical risk. This structure allows for both in-depth specialization and the preservation of a broad transdisciplinary perspective essential to the PPE programme.
