Why study this course with us?
  • Politics at the University of Chester looks behind the media headlines and assumptions that surround power politics. We explore the underlying political issues and ask age old questions such as ÔHow do we achieve the good society?Õ; ÔDo the strong do as they please, while the weak suffer?Õ; and ÔIs the point of politics to change the world?Õ.
  • The teaching team brings a wealth of experience and knowledge. We may also invite guest lecturers to provide specialist sessions and where appropriate, facilitate visits to political institutions and events with regional MPs and local authorities.
