Bachelor's in Psychology, Economics, and Politics Hult International Business School

Overview

The Bachelor’s in Psychology, Economics & Politics (PEP) at Hult International Business School is a full-time, on-campus undergraduate degree based at Hult’s London campus. The world’s most complex challenges—from political shifts to economic inequality—rarely fit inside a single subject. This program doesn’t either.

PEP gives you a broad, interdisciplinary lens for exploring how minds, markets, and political systems interact, so you can understand not just what is happening in the world, but why—and what could change it.

Who is this program for?

PEP suits students who are curious about the forces shaping the world and want to help change them for the better—whether as a future diplomat, policymaker, or global business leader. No prior background in any one of the three fields is required, just a genuine interest in how people, power, and money intersect.

An interdisciplinary core, built around real challenges

Each term centers on a core challenge that asks you to connect psychology, economics, and politics to solve a real, complex problem—often in partnership with an external organization such as a think tank, NGO, or business. Personal development coaching and skills workshops run alongside your studies throughout.

Shape your own specialization

Beyond the core, you tailor your degree to your interests and career goals. You can deepen your expertise through electives, or gain credit and practical experience through an internship or global exchange.

Why London for this degree?

London is a living laboratory for understanding how psychology, economics, and politics interact. Studying here puts you close to influential institutions, financial markets, and international policymaking—giving you a city-sized classroom for a genuinely global degree.

Career outcomes

A PEP degree prepares graduates to understand people, power, and markets—and to lead at the intersection of all three. Hult PEP graduates go on to shape policy and work in the public sector and NGOs, pursue postgraduate study in fields like law and international relations, or take up leadership roles in the private sector, from scaling startups to leading multinational companies.

Accreditation

Hult International Business School is triple-accredited by AACSB, AMBA, and EQUIS—a distinction held by fewer than 1% of business schools worldwide.
