The PPE programme is pleased to announce that our NSS results for 2020 continue to reflect a high level of student satisfaction. Our BA/BSc PPE degree received 91.8% overall satisfaction.

The Philosophy, Politics and Economics departments are also celebrating huge successes in the 2020 NSS results.

A Warwick Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) student was recently selected as a finalist to present her Research in Applied Economics (RAE) paper online at the New Economic Talent competition and went on to win first place.

Roger Farmer, Professor of Economics, comments on the economic impact of the coronavirus:

"The current expansion that began in June of 2009 is the longest in post-war US history. The effect of Coronavirus on economic activity will mark the end of that expansion and we are now seeing the fears of market participants reflected in a stock-market crash with major market indices that dropped by more than 10% last week, wiping out all of the gains from the previous year."

Dr Redoano, from Warwick's Department of Economics says:

"The ban of political ads on Twitter is not going to solve the challenges that the use of political micro-targeting on social media has generated."

Professor Eric Renault tells us how his work brought economic theory to bear on the newly developing financial markets in Paris.
