While on study abroad, Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) students can extend their understanding of one or more of the fields that comprise their interdisciplinary major, by taking specialist courses that Yale-NUS does not offer. These courses may even count towards major requirements or they may inspire students to pursue a particular topic for their capstone.
Where to go for Study Abroad
PPE students should talk to their Pre-Major or Major Advisors, other PPE faculty and, most importantly, the Head of Studies to find out more about prospective places or programmes for study abroad.
Some of the partner institutions that Yale-NUS PPE students have studied at for study abroad include:
- Sciences Po, France
- Boston University, USA
- School of Oriental and African Studies, UK
- University of Edinburgh, UK
- Amherst College, USA
- Yale University, USA
- Yonsei University Underwood International College, South Korea
- Seoul National University, South Korea
- Pembroke College, University of Cambridge, UK
- University College London, UK
