Philosophy, Politics and Economics Program (PPE)

Since this qualification has become internationally known, many graduates from other PPE programs have launched successful careers in public service, business management, public relations and advertising, public policy, international relations, and consulting - just to name a few. One of the program's key strengths is its breadth - you will gain the unique insights and skill sets offered by three disciplines. This kind of broad-based learning and experience is an asset in any job field. Critical and ethical thinking skills, the ability to formulate and communicate ideas, the ability to creatively analyse issues from a global perspective - these are all skills for the modern world, and skills that the PPE program specializes in.  

For those who wish to pursue further studies upon graduation, the PPE program at the University of Regina will provide a strong foundation for entering law school, or professional programs in public administration (MPA), business administration (MBA) or graduate-level studies in philosophy, economics, or political Science.

In addition to being able to take courses in all three disicplines, the PPE program has two dedicated courses: Foundations of PPE (PPE 200) and PPE 400, a capstone seminar for students in their final year of study.

If you are interested in the PPE program, we recommend you take the following bundle of courses during your first year of study here at the University of Regina. If you have further questions about these courses or their pre-requisites, please contact the Arts Student Services Office. An academic advisor can assist you in planning your degree and in registering for these courses.
