This dual degree program allows you to blend your Politics studies (75% of coursework) with Philosophy (25%). You'll enhance your political knowledge while exploring fundamental philosophical concepts like ancient thought, logical reasoning, and persuasive argumentation.
Royal Holloway's Politics program encourages examination of contemporary political ideologies, systems, and critical issues. You'll build strong foundations in political theory, with opportunities to focus on specialized areas including European integration, democratic principles, Anglo-American political systems, political messaging, and youth political engagement. The curriculum fosters comprehension of power dynamics across societal levels and examines how identity, belief systems, interests, and political structures influence today's world.
Our Philosophy department offers a distinctive perspective that transcends traditional Anglo-American or European philosophical boundaries, instead examining both traditions and their interconnections. This innovative approach has cultivated an interdisciplinary program featuring faculty collaboration across multiple university departments.
