Philosophy, Politics,
Economics (PPE)

At a university focusing on the humanities, economics and social sciences of the 21st century we do not prepare for professions but teach knowledge elements that future leaders can build on and expand as they like. Sensing a strong interest from high school students and knowing that similar majors at the world’s leading British universities combine classical education with the practical knowledge needed to fill political-economic leadership positions, Corvinus has formulated its own version of this core major and is the first to offer it. You do not have to decide at high school, on the basis of any random information, whether you need economic or political knowledge: you can make up your mind after having learned about both, with philosophy, especially ethics and philosophy of science, providing the necessary and broad human perspective. After three semesters, you are free to choose specialisation which connects to the fields of knowledge that you consider most important. Join the elite of the 21st century!

Being able to study PPE (Philosophy, Politics, Economics) at Corvinus has been a real privilege. I have learned how to observe actual issues from different aspects and how to use those insights in meaningful ways. Our classes consist of engaging debates, unique projects, and hands-on experiences with incredibly competent professors. Additionally, the university offers great opportunities, such as several active student clubs, guest speaker events, unique programs that exist only at Corvinus, as well as boundless ways to connect and learn from each other. The University's dynamic community makes the whole experience more enjoyable and promising.

Corvinus is very much the Oxford of Hungary, so coming to study here means you’re surrounded by incredible people with fresh perspectives that can actually impact the world. The Corvinus student life is vibrant, where you get to talk to a wide cast of students from all around the globe – I’ve made friends with someone from every continent besides Antarctica here. Corvinus is the place to be if you want to enjoy your student life while not compromising academic success.
