BA Politics

You will learn to think critically, take a balanced approach, and present your ideas persuasively. You might work as a politicians assistant, a researcher for an MP or think-tank, or a public-affairs consultant. You could work in the civil service, in local government, or for a campaigning or lobbying group. A number of Keele politics graduates have become MPs themselves. A wide range of other employers also sees a politics degree as evidence of your ability to think critically, take a balanced approach, make reasoned arguments and collaborate with colleagues. Therefore many graduates go into careers like journalism or management.
