Why study BA International Politics, Economics and Law at Middlesex University?

This degree provides you with the knowledge and skills related to three of the key issues affecting the lives of us all Ð politics, economics, and law.

Teaching is research informed, and our teaching staff are engaged in research on human rights, gender, and environmental issues. Many also use their research to influence on-going policy processes, such as development of United Nations international frameworks, which in turn informs their teaching.
