You’ll be able to choose from the full range of approved options in each department, and again have the option to take courses from other departments across the university.

You can also choose to write a final year dissertation in the field of your choice: Philosophy, Politics, Law, a Dramatised Dissertation, or a PPL interdisciplinary dissertation. Applying your knowledge and skills to independent research can help you stand out to employers or allow you to pursue an area of particular interest in greater depth."
