| What it is | This program combines the study of philosophical ideas and theories with the analysis of politics, government, and power systems. Unlike a single-subject honours degree, you engage deeply with both disciplines and explore how philosophical thinking applies to political questions. It suits students who want to understand not just how politics works, but why certain systems and ideas matter. | In this four-year program, you study philosophy and political science together as equal subjects rather than choosing one. You explore how people think about ethics, knowledge, and ideas, while simultaneously analyzing government systems, power, policy, and society. This combination suits students who want to understand both the foundational principles behind political decisions and the real-world systems that put them into practice. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
