Course content

Our Politics and Philosophy MA explores the politics of the present through the ideas shaping our future.

Delve in to the political challenges of our time, from climate breakdown and authoritarianism to gender, race and colonial legacies, through the lens of radical and critical theory.

Based at the university’s internationally recognised Centre for Applied Philosophy, Politics and Ethics (CAPPE), the course is rooted in a vibrant research environment. You’ll benefit from regular guest theorists, student-led conferences, reading groups, and close collaboration with a community of scholars working at the cutting edge of political and philosophical thought.

Whether you're preparing for a career in academia, public service, journalism, education or the third sector, this MA will equip you with the intellectual tools to navigate and critically reflect on the complexities of contemporary political life, engaging with the political challenges of today and contributing meaningfully to the debates that will shape tomorrow.
