The range of modules and specialisms you can take with an MA in PPE mean you are adding breadth to your choice of career path. Our graduates from BA/BSc have gone on to work in academia, research, government, charity, NGOs, banking, finance, consultancy, civil service, law, media and journalism to name a few of the wide range of potential paths you could take after your MA. Over 81% of Warwick PPE 2018 graduates were in work or further study six months after graduating.

The interdisciplinary nature of your MA in PPE postgraduate course will support your development during the next stage of your career. Beyond your programme, we have a wide range of opportunities to gain experience, hone your skills and cover specific areas of knowledge.

You can attend drop ins or arrange CV and application checks and careers guidance appointments with a careers consultant.
