 Welcome to the Department of Politics and International Studies at SOAS University of London. Here at SOAS we offer BA programs in Politics, International Relations, and a combination of the two. We also offer the BSc in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics, PPE. Together with our students we study how politics works, beyond Western lenses alone. We explore political patterns in the rich and complex worlds of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. We also study issues cutting across these regions and how they connect with the other parts of the world. As a SOAS student you'll pick from a broad range of modules that you won't find elsewhere, covering our regional specialisms and tailored to address key global issues. You'll join a diverse group of scholars as well as a politically aware and famously proactive and globally influential student body. Our graduates leave SOAS not only with an understanding of the most important political, economic, and cultural issues of our time, but also with the portfolio of skills that employers want. Studies at SOAS will help you gain the tools you'll need to understand the world around you. We'll encourage you to make a difference and become a catalyst for change.
