BACHELOR OF SCIENCE DEGREE IN PHILOSOPHY, POLITICS & ECONOMICS
The aim of this course is to expose students to philosophical, socio-cultural, political and economic contexts of different regions of the world thus forming a basis for future leadership roles. Key ideas such as democracy, culture, conflict, globalization, equality, diversity and sustainable development in different parts of the world are x-rayed. Philosophy will expose students to skills for identifying and gaining in-depth understanding of the philosophical concepts underlying many political, social, economic and ethical theories. The study of Politics provides platforms for thorough understanding of the different ways in which politics shapes our lives, the various forms that politics takes, and how politics is organized differently around the world. The study of Economics imbues the students with an in-depth knowledge of how consumers, firms and government make decisions that together determine how resources are allocated.
The ultimate goal of the program is to meet the evolving global needs through teaching, research, and services. At CMIT, AIUWA, we combine an understanding of theory with the practical skills necessary to apply knowledge to businesses, industries, financial or government environment. We integrate professional curriculum to all general academic curriculum thereby making all our students work-ready after graduation. This integration and the quality of our faculty distinguish our PPE course from other degrees in political science or economics.
Students are exposed to up to date software, real-time databases and state-of-the-art research tools widely used in the industry. There are opportunities for overseas exposure through study trips and internship programmes.
