Welcome from the course director
"Congratulations on your offer to study Politics, Philosophy & Law at King’s! This is a unique four-year degree that brings together three subjects.
"Throughout your degree you’ll take all the core modules of a standard law student while also getting access to the range of modules across politics and philosophy to design your own curriculum.
"The degree encourages you to think critically about big ideas as well as contemporary practical challenges. We’re a small, close-knit community, and you’ll have plenty of opportunities to get involved both academically and socially. I look forward to welcoming you in September."
- Dr Todd Karhu, Director of the LLB in Politics, Philosophy & Law
