Business, Political Economy and Society (MSc)

The MSc Business, Political Economy and Society provides a fascinating insight into the impact of political, social, economic, technological and environmental issues on international business decisions and global strategies in an increasingly globalised world. This programme is taught by a cross-disciplinary community of scholars from Birkbeck's departments of Management, Economics, Law and Politics. Students will learn how to critically evaluate and assess business decisions in different political economy and social contexts. Students will also be trained in key methodological research techniques enabling them to successfully draft business and political economic analysis. The programme is ideal for those wishing to pursue a career in the increasingly popular field of political economy in both developed and developing countries. It also provides a strong foundation for PhD research in the area.
