Overview

George Mason University 's Philosophy, Politics, and Economics B.A program is the first in the Washington DC Area and it fuses our faculty strengths with the uniqued opportunities afforded by the Capital area and our international partnerships.

Key Features

PPE students at Mason follow a sequence of courses that moves from foundational courses, to advanced, specialized seminars, and culminate in a capstone seminar. In addition to completing a major in a traditional field, PPE students develop advanced interdisciplinary skills.

We strongly encourage PPE students to study abroad (JS Mill Scholars Program) and provide a robust array of extra-curricular events to engage students with faculty (the southside group) and distinguished guest lecturers (the Roger Wilkins Lectures).
