The Luiss Bachelor’s Degree in Politics: Philosophy and Economics, taught entirely in English, offers an international and interdisciplinary pathway combining philosophy, politics and economics with law, history, sociology and quantitative methods.

The programme prepares students to understand the complexity of contemporary societies and analyse political, economic and social phenomena from different perspectives. It develops critical thinking, argumentation skills, ethical awareness and analytical abilities, providing students with the tools to address major global challenges related to Artificial Intelligence, sustainability and the protection of fundamental rights.

During the first two years, students acquire theoretical knowledge and analytical tools to understand the relationships between institutions, markets and political processes. In the third year, they can personalise their study path through one of three interdisciplinary tracks: Artificial Intelligence, Sustainability or Protection of Fundamental Rights. The programme also includes data analysis, coding, humanities and academic writing workshops, internships and study abroad opportunities, including double degree programmes.

Graduates can pursue careers in international organisations, public institutions, think tanks, non-governmental organisations and private companies, or continue their studies through Master’s Degree Programmes and other postgraduate pathways in political science, philosophy, economics, international relations and related fields.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Applicants must demonstrate a minimum English language proficiency of B2 CEFR, certified by a recognised test issued no more than three years prior to application. Only the final level indicated on the certificate (B2, C1, or C2) will be considered; interim levels are not valid. Candidates who completed their entire undergraduate studies in English will automatically be assigned a presumed B2 level. However, in order to be considered for a higher level (and any associated benefits), one of the accepted certificates showing that level must be uploaded during the application process. Please note: if you apply for a programme taught in Italian, you must provide a certificate showing at least B2 proficiency in Italian at the time of enrolment.
