You'll benefit from a solid grounding in the core subjects of Philosophy, Politics and Economics, along with a range of interdisciplinary modules available across all three years. You'll choose from a large range of option modules that will help you tailor the course to your own interests, meaning you can develop your strengths in your second and third years. You can also choose between taking the 'standard' PPE route and the 'econometrics' route, which has been developed for those who intend to take statistics or econometrics as second or third-year modules. Econometrics is usually a requirement if you wish to continue with an MSc in Economics. This route is available only if you have at least a B grade in Mathematics at A Level (or equivalent), but you do not need to decide which degree you'll take until you arrive at York.

This course is available as a four-year degree including optional placement year. In order to progress to this program, Pathway program is required first.
