Politics isn’t just about governments, it’s about power, ideas, and change. Our undergraduate Politics degree gives you the tools to explore big questions: Who makes decisions? How do societies work? What can you do to make a difference?
Politics is deeply connected to economics, history, culture, and identity (gender, race, class, and nationality) as well as to questions of values within society. Through our BA (Hons) Politics degree you can explore issues of democratisation and democratic decline, of equality and human rights, of norms and values that shape societies and individuals, as well as of how public policies are developed in Wales, Britain and beyond.
The opportunity to intern with a Member of the Senedd in our Senedd/Welsh Parliament module provides a chance to learn how parliaments and parliamentarians work. You can also participate in the British Parliamentary Studies module, partly delivered by expert staff from the Houses of Parliament. Our BA (Hons) Politics degree can open up a range of exciting career possibilities by helping you to develop research and analytical skills, as well as working collaboratively towards shared goals and equipping you with the graduate attributes highly valued by employers.
Join a vibrant community of thinkers and changemakers, dive into real-world issues, and develop the skills to influence tomorrow. If you care about how we govern ourselves as a society, how we deal with diverse perspectives, and how we can respond to global challenges, our BA Politics offers an exciting starting point for your intellectual and professional journey.
