Politics and international relations may be studied in Exeter with a wide range of other subjects including Arabic, Economics, History, Philosophy, Sociology or with a Modern Language (French, German, Italian, Russian or Spanish). Your work is divided evenly between the two subjects, with the politics and international relations modules appropriate to the combined degree. The programmes are designed so that there are no differences in the workload in comparison to the Single Honours degrees.
BA Economics and Politics
This programme provides an excellent education across the range of politics and economics, from core to specialist topics, in a supportive and responsive learning environment that is enriched by research.
BA History and International Relations
This programme allows you to combine these related yet also very different subjects and to study the historical evolution and contemporary character of world politics from different perspectives.
BA History and Politics
This programme allows you to combine History with the study of political theory and practice and enables you to explore recurring themes in history, such as class, gender, ethnicity, religion and war alongside the study of political behaviour, institutions and ideas.
BA Philosophy and Political Economy
This degree will allow you to study and understand the contribution that philosophy can make to older and newer political and economical questions. You will be able to reflect on the role that philosophical notions such as ‘rationality’, ‘values’ and ‘norms’ play in other disciplines interested in the structure and functioning of human societies.
BA Philosophy and Politics
This programme allows you to apply analytical-philosophical skills to the study of political events and theories. Philosophy and politics overlap considerably when it comes to discussing concepts of ‘state’, ‘democracy’ and ‘public good’, and yet both disciplines have their own methodologies and styles. This programme will enable you to become familiar with the best known approaches, and appreciate their complementary nature whilst challenging you to reflect upon the conditions of human social life and the significance of politics as a human activity.
BA Politics and Arabic/Arabic Studies
This programme allows you to combine the study of the language, history and culture of the Arabic world with the analysis of political ideas, institutions and practices more generally.
BA Politics/International Relations and a Modern Language (French, German, Italian, Russian or Spanish)
These programmes allow you to combine the study of Politics or International Relations with French, German, Italian, Russian or Spanish.
BA Politics and Sociology
This programme enables you to study the social organisation, economy and cosmology of a range of societies together with their political ideas, institutions and practices.
