We resolve any possible doubts

What is PPLE, and what is covered in this degree program?

PPLE combines Philosophy, Politics, Law, and Economics to analyze social issues from the perspectives of these four disciplines. You will study how ideas, institutions, laws, and economic decisions influence society, with a special focus on their impact on individuals and the common good.

What is the difference between studying PPLE and FPE?

FPE combines Philosophy, Politics, and Economics, while PPLE adds Law as a fourth discipline. In our Bachelor's Degree PPLE program, you will take law courses alongside courses in philosophical thought, institutions, and economic analysis to examine social issues from these four perspectives.

Does studying PPLE mean earning a Bachelor of Laws ( Bachelor's Degree )?

No. The PPLE program integrates four disciplines into a single degree and does not grant a Bachelor of Laws ( Bachelor's Degree ) degree. To become a lawyer, you must hold a law degree, complete specialized training that includes an internship, pass a professional aptitude assessment, and be admitted to the bar. Studying legal subjects in the PPLE program does not substitute for these requirements.

In what language is the " Bachelor's Degree " taught in the PPLE program?

Our " Bachelor's Degree " in Philosophy, Politics, Law, and Economics for the Common Good is taught in English. You will study the content of these four disciplines and develop your ability to argue and communicate ideas in an international academic setting.

Are mathematics, statistics, and data analysis part of the PPLE program?

Yes. You will take courses in mathematics, probability and statistics, computer science, social sciences, and research methods in the social sciences. You will learn to use quantitative tools and research methods to study data and analyze social problems.

What are PPLE's Global Common Good Laboratories?

These are courses in which you will integrate what you have learned in Philosophy, Politics, Law, and Economics. In the Global Common Good Laboratories, you will address problems from philosophical, political, legal, and economic perspectives to gain a comprehensive understanding of them and propose possible solutions.

Are public policy and international governance studied in the PPLE program?

Yes. Courses such as Global Public Policy and Global Administrative Law and Governance will allow you to study how policies are designed, how institutions operate, and what rules govern the decisions that affect different societies.

Are there mock parliamentary sessions and debates at PPLE?

Yes. Our curriculum includes parliamentary simulations, ethical and political debates, seminars with experts, and visits to institutions. In addition, the program fosters public speaking and debate skills through student organizations such as the UFV Debate Society and UFV MUN.

What do students study in the PPLE program regarding economics and international trade?

You will study Global Economics, Finance and International Trade, and Commercial Law. You will learn how the economy and trade between countries work, what role laws and political decisions play, and what ethical issues they raise. All of this will be approached from the perspective of the common good, which guides the degree program.

What Does Philosophy Contribute to the Study of Politics, Law, and Economics?

Philosophy helps you examine the ideas and values that underpin political, legal, and economic decisions. In courses such as Theoretical Ethics and Metaphysics and Theories of the Common Good, you will explore issues related to justice, responsibility, and the ethical principles that should guide our decisions.
