Politics Combined Degrees

Politics is both an academic discipline and a practical activity. This duality provides a creative tension. In other words, students of politics are seeking both a standard method of understanding an aspect of human behaviour and solutions to problems thrown up by the circumstances of the time. The study of politics is, therefore, intellectually demanding and socially relevant.

Politics courses are taught by the School of Humanities at the Greenwich Campus. Depending on your selected combination you may be required to travel between campuses.
