 The MA in political philosophy is a one-year course which aims to equip students with the analytical and critical tools they need to engage with key historical texts and contemporary debates in political philosophy. The MA admits around 25 students every year who take around seven courses and write one thesis during their time here. They're taught mostly in seminars in which they actively take part in discussion and for the MA thesis they're also taught in one-to-one tutorials. The MA is often a springboard for further study in political philosophy and many of our students have gone on to pursue PhD programs elsewhere. The MA in political philosophy can also be read as part of a double degree program with the University of Warwick where students can go in their second year to read for an MA in political and legal theory. My name is Eva Fortes and I'm from New York. I came to UPF, the Universitat Pompeo Fabra, to study a Masters in Political Philosophy. When I was looking for a Masters program I was looking for something that would be able to combine literature, art, culture with politics, human rights and what I found was this program in political philosophy was the perfect combination of the two. That's not even talking about the advantages of living in Barcelona which is one of the most amazing cities in the world. The concepts I learned in this Masters have helped me to engage better with the world around me, engage politically, engage culturally. The people I met in this Masters have helped to lay a foundation for me to build my life here.
