My time at the LSE was incredible. To live in London is a lifetime experience, but especially if you are doing something you love. The MSc in Philosophy and Public Policy (PPP) was exactly what I was looking for. After six years working on education, and in the middle of years of public debate in Chile, I decided that […]

I would strongly recommend the MSc Philosophy and Public Policy [PPP] to anyone who wants to drill public policy issues down to their philosophical foundations. In my job as a policy officer the PPP programme still provides a guide to clear my thinking and ask the relevant (often-forgotten) moral questions.

The programme is interdisciplinary with a clear conceptual core. The […]

Studying Philosophy and Public Policy at the LSE has been an amazing and rewarding experience. I have enjoyed being surrounded by inspiring and ambitious people as well as being part of a small faculty where professors are approachable and supportive. The programme has taught me to apply moral and political philosophical perspectives underlying public policy debates across multiple policy […]

The MSc Economics & Philosophy programme strikes the perfect balance between quantitative analysis and philosophical argument. By requiring the participation in two economics courses together with the MSc Economics students, and in two philosophy courses together with the other MSc Philosophy students, it provides a truly interdisciplinary curriculum. I really felt I got to enjoy the best of both […]

The MSC Economics & Philosophy is a truly interdisciplinary graduate programme. There is an impressive range of philosophy courses to choose from, most with some relevance to economics and the social sciences, and the economics courses are shared with the MSc Economics programme. As well as your chosen courses, there is also a weekly seminar just for the programme […]

My time at LSE was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Not only was I introduced to a field of study which is now my life passion, but since graduating I have also taken up a career in an area which allows me to put my studies into practice on a daily basis.

I chose the MSc in Philosophy of the Social Sciences offered by LSE because I wanted to understand what distinguishes a scientific description of the world from a non-scientific one. The exposure I received to various approaches to scientific explanation in social disciplines such as economics and sociology was more thorough and deep than I could ever have expected.

LSE […]

Studying the MSc in Philosophy of the Social Sciences has been a truly rewarding and magnificent experience for me. I joined LSE, with a background in philosophy which was very historical. Studying my master at LSE helped me tremendously to get to the cutting edge of analytical philosophy and understand what is currently debated, something which I felt I […]

The combination of coursework and individual research within the MSc programme has enabled me to gain knowledge and insights into a wide array […]

I was constantly impressed and inspired by the academic rigor here.  Yet […]
