Overview

Philosophy, Political Science, Economics and Sociology (P.P.E.S.), offers a coherent and integrated introduction to the study of social sciences and philosophy. It brings together some of the most important approaches to understanding society and, in doing so, develops skills for a whole range of future careers and activities. Central to the programme is the analysis of social and human phenomena through the lens of several complementary disciplines and analytical frameworks. By allowing a gradual specialization over the course of the four-year degree programme, students ultimately obtain an excellent grounding in one, or at most two, of the disciplines which comprise the course. Particularly appealing is the complementarity across the P.P.E.S. disciplines. For example, while the well-publicized rise in inequality has economic origins, it has political and sociological ramifications. Moreover, the question of whether to address it is ultimately a philosophical one. A training in PPES enables students to analyze such issues rigorously and comprehensively. As such, it provides an excellent training in analytical thinking, a skill highly prized by employers. Trinity College Dublin is the only university in the Republic of Ireland that offers this broad combination of subjects in a single programme. Other institutions, including Trinity, offer two subject combinations such as Economics and Political Science or Economics and Philosophy, but P.P.E.S. offers the opportunity to study these four fascinating subjects together. Following the first two years, the programme facilitates two years of greater specialization in either one or two of the subjects. Trinity College have world-class teachers and researchers who are committed to providing rigorous, interesting and challenging courses.
