BA (Hons) Politics with Foundation Year in Chester United Kingdom | University of Chester

At Chester, our Politics program delves beyond media soundbites to examine the fundamental political challenges of yesterday and today, encouraging you to analyze how societies are organized and how they shape individuals.

This degree combines theory with practical application, focusing on governance, power dynamics, and conflict resolution while investigating the functions of governments, states, and political systems. Chester's Politics program offers chances to critically engage with contemporary political concepts, processes, and structures both nationally and internationally.
Our faculty brings extensive expertise to the classroom. We frequently host guest speakers for specialized topics and, when possible, organize visits to political organizations and events featuring regional representatives and council members.

The program extends learning beyond campus through diverse field experiences, including past excursions to the European Parliament in Brussels. We've also coordinated practical initiatives like voter registration campaigns.
