Programme overview
The MA in Social and Political Philosophy combines politics, philosophy, sociology, economics and law to investigate recent debates in social and political theory. This programme draws on the diverse research interests of our academics; references Anglo-American and Continental literatures; and employs analytical and institutional approaches to explore moral and political concepts and questions.
As a graduate of this programme you will have developed a critical awareness of questions about the relationship between identity, power, meaning and knowledge; insight into recent critiques of modern western societies and their values; and substantive knowledge of social and political theorists, their significance and the major critical positions adopted towards them.
Location
This programme is based at Streatham Campus, Exeter, in the United Kingdom.
Duration
You may study the MA in Social and Political Philosophy over 12 months as a full-time student, or 24 months as a part-time student.
Teaching takes place over two terms (October to April) followed by completion of the dissertation over the summer (June to September) - this will be the summer of your second year if you choose to study as a part-time student.
