BA (Hons) Politics

From US and Middle Eastern politics to the big political issues of the day in Britain; look beyond the headlines and explore concepts such as power, democracy, and justice with a degree in Politics.

Lincoln’s BA (Hons) Politics degree examines domestic and global politics, political theory, and international relations. Students explore the big issues facing Britain and the rest of the world, and study the social and theoretical contexts that underpin these developments.

The programme gives those with a passion for politics the chance to present arguments thoughtfully and debate points of contention with their peers. Students can develop analytical, evaluative, and critical thinking skills, and learn how to collect and analyse data, and draft policy proposals.
