About Economics, Politics And Law in Dublin City University

In the first two years of the course, there’s an equal weighting of the three disciplines.

Three compulsory research methods modules taken in Year One will provide core learning skills that you’ll use throughout your degree.

In Years Two and Three, your modules will further enhance your knowledge of research methods and dissertation skills in all three disciplines. These skills will provide you with the necessary tools to analyse major issues affecting our world today from an economic, political and legal perspective.

In Year Three, you take a core module in each discipline. After that, you are free to specialise in one of the three disciplines or continue to study a combination of all three.
