Cambridge University

The Tripos System

 

Degree courses (called Triposes) are not modular but are divided into blocks lasting one or two years. In some subjects there is a two-year Part I (which may be divided into Part IA and Part IB) and a one-year Part II. In others Part I lasts a year and is followed by a two-year Part II. In Engineering and some

science subjects there is a fourth year (Part II or III) leading to the degree of MEng or MSci.

 

There are examinations at the end of each Part and these must be passed in order to achieve the Cambridge degree, BA Hons.

 

One of the most distinctive characteristics of Cambridge courses is that they cover the subject very broadly in the initial years and then become more specialized and offer a wide range of options in the later years.

 

Most students take successive parts of the same Tripos. However, it is possible to change Tripos after Part I or Part IA. Most changes are between related fields: within the science areas or within the arts, but switching between broad areas is also possible, and a wide range of subject combinations is therefore available.

Matriculation Requirements

 

These are the minimum entrance requirements for all applicants regardless of course and age, and are designed to ensure they have had a sufficiently broad general education.

 

Qualifications are required in:

 

• English.
• A language other than English.
• An approved mathematical or scientific subject.
• Two other approved subjects.

 

For applicants with GCSEs and GCE A levels, at least two of these subjects must be at GCE A level and the others at GCSE (grades A, B or C).

 

If there are good reasons why applicants expect not to be able to satisfy the matriculation requirements, for example, not taken a language other than English at GCSE, applicants should consult the Admissions Tutor of their preferred College, to find out if they would be able to waive any part of the requirement in their individual circumstances.

 

However, most applicants will be expecting to achieve high grades in three or four subjects at GCE A level or equivalent.

 

 

 

Economics Degree

 

The Economics Tripos at Cambridge focuses on giving students a sound understanding of the core of economics, pure and applied. However, while the specialized nature of this degree enables students to concentrate on studying economics in considerable depth, the breadth of the aims outlined above means that economists need to employ modes of thought and techniques drawn from many other disciplines, among them history, sociology, mathematics and statistics and philosophy.

 

Students can expect to develop skills in understanding complex arguments, the analysis of practical issues, knowledge of economic conditions, analysis of data, and effective communication. Such skills are of value in many subsequent careers, but particularly in professional, financial and managerial occupations.

 

A substantial number of economics graduates go on to professional training in chartered accountancy, actuarial work and similar fields: others are employed by financial institutions or as professional economists in industry, government and management consultancy.

 

 

Tripos transfers.

 

It is possible to combine Economics with another subject, either by spending the first year taking Part I Economics and then transferring to another subject such as Law or Social and Political Sciences, or by completing two years of Economics followed by a final-year subject such as Management Studies. Students can also study another subject such as Mathematics for one year before transferring to Part IIA Economics. Several students make such changes each year.

 

 

 Economics Course Outline

 

 

Part 1

 

Year 1

 

Part 1 provides an introduction to the subject: a common core of knowledge which can subsequently be extended. There are five compulsory papers:

 

• Microeconomics.
• Macroeconomics.
• Quantitative Methods.
• Politics (political and sociological aspects of economics).
• British Economic History.

 

Through these papers students cover topics such as supply and demand, the role of prices and markets, employment, inflation, the operation of financial institutions and monetary policy. The Quantitative Methods paper provides an introduction to the use of mathematical and statistical techniques in economics.

 

 

Part IIA

 

Year 2

 

Part IIA consists of three compulsory papers (Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and Econometrics) plus one optional paper, chosen from Development, Sociology or Mathematics.

 

 

Part IIB

 

Year 3

 

The final year consists of two compulsory papers (Microeconomics and Macroeconomics), two optional papers and a compulsory dissertation. One of the objectives of the final year is to extend students’ knowledge of economic theory and train them to apply this theory to practical issues and public policy.

 

 

Economics Course Requirements

 

 

Given the increasingly technical nature of economic theory, it is now essential that applicants have AS level Mathematics (or equivalent). Ideally students should have A level Mathematics (or equivalent) and this is essential for applicants to some colleges.

 

Economics is seen as useful preparation by all Colleges but it is not essential and History is considered useful by Newnham.

 

 

http://www.cam.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses/economics/index.html

 

 

 

Law Degree

 

The Cambridge Law Tripos gives students the opportunity both to see law in its historical and social context and to examine its general principles and techniques.

 

Although the greater part of this course, naturally, is concerned with English law, students will have the opportunity to study other legal systems, including civil (Roman) law, the law of the European Union and international law.

 

All Cambridge Colleges require applicants from the UK, EU and certain overseas countries to take the Law National Admissions Test (LNAT). The LNAT is designed to provide an assessment of the applicants' potential for the law degree. It will be used as an additional piece of information for admissions decisions alongside school results, the other information on the application form, and where applicable the applicants’ performance in interview.

 

 

Tripos transfers

 

Students who wish to combine law with another subject usually study law after that subject rather than before. It is desirable to study law for two years wherever possible, since it is not possible to pass all seven ‘foundation’ subjects at Cambridge in less than two years. If a students’ first subject has a two-year Part I, they will need to consider the implications – especially the financial implications – of four years as an undergraduate.

 

 

Law Course Outline

 

Part IA

 

Year 1

 

In the first year students take Part IA of the Law Tripos. There are four papers:

 

• Criminal Law.
• Constitutional Law.
• Civil Law.
• Law of Tort.

 

 

Part IB

 

Year 2

 

In the second year students choose five papers from a wide range of options. Most students take Contract Law and Land Law. Other options include:

 

• Family Law.
• International Law.
• Administrative Law.
• Criminal Procedure and Criminal Evidence.
• Sentencing and the Penal System.
• Legal History.
• Civil Law II.

 

 

Part II

 

Year 3

 

At the end of the third year students take Part II of the Law Tripos, for which they will have selected and studied five papers from an even more extensive range.

 

• Most students take Equity and European Union Law.
• In the third year students can develop their interests in, for instance, Commercial Law subjects, Public Law subjects and in more theoretical aspects of Law (Jurisprudence).
• Students can also take certain half-papers. These range from Taxation and Landlord and Tenant through Banking Law, Medical Law and Media Law, to the English Legal History 1500-1700.

 

 

Law Course Requirements

 

 

Many A level (or equivalent) subjects provide a good grounding for the study of Law at university and Colleges have an open mind about the subjects that are a sound preparation.

 

Good applicants tend to have taken subjects at A level (or equivalent) that develop a careful, analytical approach to reading and which require them to present information in a way which is well structured and thoughtfully argued. In our experience, applicants with backgrounds in Mathematics and science subjects perform as well as those whose background is in humanities subjects. Many Colleges are pleased to see applicants with a mixed background in these subjects.

 

Applicants are not required to have studied Law at GCSE of A level. Those who have done so tend not to have any special advantage once they begin studying Law at university. Academic subjects other than Law will generally provide a solid foundation for the course, as well as give a desirable breadth of experience.

 

All applicants are required to sit for the Law National Admissions Test (LNAT) test and some colleges require applicants to sit for test and interview. For details refer to Cambridge website Main Admission tests and written work page.

 

 

http://www.cam.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses/law/index.html

 

 

 

 

Engineering Degree

 

The aim of this course is to provide students with all the analytical, design and computing skills that underpin modern engineering practice, while encouraging the creativity and problem-saving skills that are so important to a good engineer.

 

Graduates from this course will be equipped to be flexible across the range of engineering disciplines, will have learnt the skills necessary for effective team leadership, and be able to apply new technologies in novel situations.

 

At the end of four years students will graduate with the BA and MEng degrees. (A few students leave the course after three years, either from choice or for academic reasons, and graduate with the BA Hons degree).

 

 

Tripos Transfers

 

 

Students may transfer to the Chemical Engineering Tripos at the end of their first year, or to the Management Studies Tripos or the Manufacturing Engineering Tripos after completing Part I of the Engineering Tripos.

 

 

 

 

Engineering Course Outline

 

 

Parts IA & IB

 

An unrivalled breadth of knowledge

Years 1 and 2

 

The broad foundation of the first two years (Parts IA and IB) ensures that students develop an understanding of basic principles over a wide range of subjects, together with an appreciation of the economic, social and environmental pressures under which these ideas are likely to be applied.

 

In the first year (Part IA), students will follow lecture courses in Mechanical Engineering, Structural Mechanics and Materials, Electrical and Information Engineering and Mathematical Methods (which offers two parallel classes taught at different levels). Coursework includes: structural design, product design, exposition, computing, microprocessors, management, electronic instrumentation and drawing. Seventeen laboratory experiments are performed covering the behavior of materials, components and systems.

 

In the second year (Part IB) students study eight core subjects at a more advanced level: Mechanics, Structures, Materials, Thermofluid Mechanics, Electrical Engineering, Information Engineering, Mathematical Methods and Business Economics.

 

In the third term of the second year students select two topics from seven professional engineering activities plus a foreign language option. The topics provide an introduction to the more specialized work of the third year: they emphasize engineering design and serve to consolidate the knowledge gained earlier in the course. Coursework includes over 20 laboratory experiments, together with numerical analysis and computing exercises.

 

A highlight of the second year is the popular Integrated Design Project where students work in teams of six to design and built robot vehicles which are then tested against each other.

 

 

Parts IIA & IIB

 

Professional Specialisation

Years 3 and 4

 

Specialisation begins in earnest in the third year (Part IIA). Students choose a combination of ten modules from an extensive portfolio from which a core will be associated with one of the following areas of engineering:

 

• Aerospace and Aerothermal Engineering.
• Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering.
• Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
• Electrical and Information Sciences.
• Energy and the Environment.
• Engineering for the Life Sciences.
• Information and Computer Engineering.
• Instrumentation and Control.
• Mechanical Engineering.

 

The third term of the third year is devoted entirely to project work where students choose two activities from a variety of design and computer-based projects, projects in a foreign language or a surveying project. Some of our students are able to spend this year at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as part of the Cambridge-MIT exchange programmes.

 

In the fourth year (Part IIB), further specialization is possible and students now select eight modules from a list of nearly 100. These modules benefit from the Department’s leading role in engineering research. The courses are taught by experts, and students graduate with an advanced appreciation of theory and practice in their chosen area. A major project extends throughout the final year and this can be expected to occupy about half their time. Many projects are associated with current department research and have direct industrial input and application.

History

 

History is highly focused in its objectives. It will equip students with a broad range of historical knowledge and understanding. It will teach students to evaluate critically the significance and usefulness of primary and secondary material. It aims to instill in students the confidence to undertake self-directed learning. And it emphasizes the importance of assembling, organizing and presenting ideas, clearly and coherently. Studying history will provide students with a multifaceted insight into human experience and make sense of a complex, globalizing world.

 

The course gives student opportunities to look at the past through many disciplinary lenses – including political, economic, social, cultural and intellectual – and explore how history has learnt from other disciplines like anthropology, literature and archaeology. Course options are shared with other departments, such as Social and Political Sciences, oriental studies, and Modern and Medieval Languages.

 

History is unusual among Cambridge subjects in not setting a classed first-year examination but most history undergraduates sit a Preliminary Examination towards the end of their first year. This does not count towards students’ final degree but aims to give them an informal sense of achievement to that point. The Colleges decide individually whether to enter their students for this or to assess their progress by other means.

 

 

Tripos Transfers

 

The flexibility of the History Tripos, and the fact that some Part II options are shared with faculties such as Social and Political Sciences (SPS) and Classics, means that few students wish to transfer out after Part I. Law and History of Art are favourites among those who do transfer. About ten people each year take a two-year Part II in History, usually after a one-year Part I in subjects such as SPS or Economics.

 

 

Course Outlines

 

Years 1 and 2

 

Part I lasts two years (six terms).Students choose five from 22 periods of history and study one each term for the first five terms.

 

·        Students take at least one period of British political history and one of British economic and social history.

·        For the other three papers it is possible to study any period of European history from the Greeks to the present, periods of extra-European history, the history of the USA, and/or the history of political thought. Students may specialize, for example in ancient and medieval papers, or almost entirely in the twentieth century.

 

For the sixth component, Themes and Sources, students will complete a 5,000 word essay. There is a very wide choice of topics, typically investigating a major theme in comparative history (such as gender, democracy, revolutions or music). The essay is written over a period of some months, and involves individual research.

 

 

Year 3

 

Students who have taken Part I then take a one-year Part II. (The two-year Part II is for those who have taken a one-year Part I in another subject).

 

This consists of five units:

 

·        A general paper, Historical Argument and Practice

·        Four other papers chosen from nearly 40 options in all, ranging across the centuries and continents.

 

Students can substitute a dissertation on a topic of their choice for one paper.

Course Requirements

 

There is no single combination of subjects that is especially good for students wishing to study History. It is highly desirable, but not essential, that you be taking History A level (or equivalent). Successful applicants take all sorts of subjects from Mathematics and the Sciences, to arts and social sciences. All of these teach skills that can be useful to the undergraduate historian. It may be useful to have a second essay-based subject alongside History. No subject is absolutely undesirable.

 

At many Colleges there is a preference for applicants to have, in addition to History, at least one further essay-based A level in a traditional arts or social science subject. Performance-based subjects and some of the newer A levels that contain less individual essay work for assessment would be acceptable as a third A level.

 

 

http://www.cam.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses/history/index.html

 

 

Social and Political Sciences

 

The Social and Political Sciences Tripos (SPS) explores many of the questions about human beings that excite great passions and it enables students to consider them in a coherent and detached manner as the heirs to distinguished cosmopolitan traditions of thought. It encourages students to think for themselves about these questions and to understand why others will answer them differently.

 

SPS is a distinctive course within the social sciences and humanities in the range of subjects and choices it can offer students:  in few other institutions are Politics, Social and Development Psychology (in contrast to Experimental Psychology) and Sociology taught together and combined under the same roof. In the first year, SPS also includes Social Anthropology. This gives students the opportunity to study four subjects in the first year, to specialize in the second year, and to broaden out again in the third year. But students can also combine subjects in the second and third years:  both Sociology and Psychology, and Sociology and Politics.

 

SPS combines opportunity to develop specific skills and knowledge to equip students for particular careers in psychology and research, with a broad education that can lead to careers in the media, management, the Civil Service, diplomacy, national and international non-government organizations, and much else beside.

 

The course offers an unusually diverse range of career openings. Students who follow the psychology route are eligible for admission to professional courses in clinical and educational psychology through graduate membership of the British Psychological Society. In recent years, up to a third of our graduates have begun careers in finance, law and business, including consultancy. Many Cambridge students pursue further study and research, frequently abroad.

 

Tripos Transfers

 

Students can enter the SPS Tripos after taking other subjects at the end of their first or second year. Conversely, after completing Part I or Part II of the SPS Tripos, students can transfer to another Tripos, such as Law, Social Anthropology, Management Studies or History.

 

 

Course Outline

 

Year 1:  A Broad Introduction

 

Part I of the SPS Tripos introduces students to the subjects of politics, psychology, sociology and social anthropology. Studns will look at questions about gender, social inequality, the media, the state, democracy, war and peace, early social development, groups and crowds, gypsies, kinship, and religious rituals.

Year 2:  Choosing one discipline or combined disciplines

 

For Part IIA, students focus on one of Politics, Psychology or Sociology, or they take a combined course in Psychology and Sociology.

 

·        In Politics, students take one paper in the history of political thought and one in comparative and international politics. Each offers choice within it. The third requirement is for two long essays on subjects of their choice, on which they receive individual supervision and in which they can deepen their work in this year and prepare for the third year of the course.

 

·        In Psychology, students take one paper in social psychology, one in experimental psychology (which involves undertaking laboratory experiments) and another I research methods and statistics, which includes a personal research project.

 

·        In Sociology, students take three papers:  one on social theory, one on elementary research methods, which includes a personal research project; for the third they can choose between a Sociology paper on globalization, and a Politics paper on comparative and international politics.

 

·        In the Psychology and Sociology scheme, students take the papers in social psychology, research methods and statistics, and choose between the two Part IIA papers in sociology.

 

 

Year 3:  Students’ Particular Interests

 

In the third year, Part IIB, students have a wide choice. They must do either one or two papers in the subjects you chose in Part IIA, and then they can choose from a selection of papers offered in other subjects and form a range of interdisciplinary papers if they so wish. Not all the papers listed are offered in every year, but students will always be able to pursue their particular interests in a dissertation.

 

·        In Politics, students choose either three papers from a range that can include the history of political thought, modern political philosophy, the politics of the European union, the USA, Japan, and Russia, modern revolutions, international organizations, and international political economy, or two of these and a dissertation on a subject of their choice. Students also take an unseen essay paper in which they are encouraged to display their understanding of politics after three years of study.

 

·        In Psychology, students are required to take a paper in developmental psychology and to write a dissertation, and can choose from others on current research interests in social psychology or psychology and social issues. They may also take one paper in Sociology or Politics or an interdisciplinary paper.

 

·        In Sociology, students may choose from media and culture, modern Britain, education, politics and religion, and health and illness. They can also choose up to three papers from a selection of papers in Politics, or take a paper in Psychology.

 

·        In Psychology and Sociology, students can choose from the papers in Sociology and Psychology or the interdisciplinary papers. They may also take two papers from a selection in Politics.

 

·        The Interdisciplinary Papers (which can vary each year) include papers on gender, the family, social and political economy of capitalism, crime and deviance, advanced research methods, and the society and politics of Latin America and South Asia, the anthropology of colonialism and empire.

 

 

Course Requirements

 

No particular subjects at A level (or equivalent) are required for Social & Political Sciences (SPS). SPS is a broad course, therefore a range of subjects provide a good background:  from Mathematics to Social Sciences (eg. Psychology, Politics and Geography) to Arts (eg. English, History and Modern Languages).

Entrance Requirements

 

All candidates applying to Oxford are considered carefully on their individual merits. Conditional offers made to successful candidates may vary depending on the college, subject and the applicant’s individual circumstances. We do not have standard offers. For A-level students, most conditional offers are likely to be set at AAA, or sometimes AAB in three subjects taken as full A-levels. In addition, colleges may specify a certain grade to be achieved in an AS-level (if it has not been achieved already).

 

The University no longer has formal matriculation requirements. These have been replaced by the following general requirement:

 

In order to be admitted to matriculation, candidates must show evidence of an appropriate educational background and good standards of literacy and numeracy. The University sets no formal Course Requirements other than for the First Examination for the Degree of BM; candidates must, however, show that they are qualified to study the particular course they wish to take at Oxford. Acceptance by a college for presentation for matriculation will be deemed to be adequate evidence of an appropriate educational background, of good standards of literacy and numeracy, and of qualifications to study the course.

BA Economics and Management (3 years)

 

 

Economics and management are ideal partners. The fundamental philosophy underpinning the course design is to adopt a rigorously intellectual approach to both subjects with the theoretical and the applied being welded together.

 

Graduates in Economics and Management are amongst the most sought-after in the University. The breadth of the course and the range of skills which it provides have proved attractive to employers in a wide variety of industries. These employers include both leading international organizations in ‘traditional activities’ as well as new start-up companies in a variety of high-tech fields.

 

 

Course summary for Economics and Management (correct at January 2006)

 

1st year	2nd and 3rd year
Courses	Courses
Three courses are taken:
Introductory economics Introduction to management Mathematics and Statistics	Micro and macroeconomics Six further options, including at least two management papers (a thesis may be undertaken in place of one paper)

 

 

 

Application Procedure

 

Candidates will be asked to submit two samples of school or college written work. Those already studying a subject related to Economics and Management, such as economics, sociology or business studies, should submit essays from these areas. Those studying more than one such subject should send essays from two different subjects Those not already studying a related subject should ensure that at least one of the two pieces is an essay.

 

There is a written test, lasting one hour, for all candidates. This is designed to test the comprehension, writing and problem-solving skills of the candidates. The format of the test may vary from year to year.

MEng Engineering, Economics and Management (4 years).

 

EEM in a joint course, but it is primarily an engineering course, with around two-thirds in engineering. It is possible to apply for direct admission to the course, but one can leave the decision to study EEM until after the first-year examinations.

 

The flexible structure of the course allows students to choose either a broad-based degree or one with more specialist work in economics or management.  The course is recognized as being extremely demanding and many employers clearly value the course highly.

 

A major feature of the course is a 24-week management or engineering project. This may take the form of an industrial placement, which starts immediately after the end of the third year examinations. During this stage students undertake a project which is of value to the firm in which they are placed. While in the industry, they are supervised by an academic tutor and an industrial supervisor.

 

EEM graduates find employment in almost all branches of industry and commerce. They are highly prized by both management consultants and the financial institutions as well as by the manufacturing industry.

BA Law Jurisprudence

 

Course I – 3 years

Course II (Law with Law Studies in Europe) – 4 years

 

There are two Law courses at Oxford: Course I is a three-year course and Course II is a four-year course which follows the same syllabus, with the extra year being spent abroad following a prescribed course at a university within the European Union.

 

The Oxford Law degrees aim to develop their students a high level of skill in comprehension, analysis and presentation. Students are expected to read a good deal, mostly from primary sources, rather than to take other people’s word for things. They are expected to think hard about what they have read, so as to develop views not simply about what the law is, but also about why it is so, whether it should be so, how it might be different, and so on, drawing on moral, philosophical, social, historical, economic and other ideas. And they are asked to process what they have read, together with their own thoughts about it, into written form (regular essays) and into both prepared and ex tempore oral form (for tutorial and classes).

 

There is no assumption that our law graduates ought to pursue a legal career. However, both the BA in Law and the BA in Law with Law Studies in Europe give exemption from the first part of legal training in England and Wales. Around 75% of Oxford law graduates go on to the legal profession.

Application Procedure

 

The selection criteria for Law, which are aimed at identifying the qualities of a successful law student, can be found on the Law Faculty’s website (www.law.ox.ac.uk)

 

Interviewers will be looking for evidence of the general qualities expected of a successful applicant to the law programme. The interview may include legally related questions as well as more general intellectual puzzles calling for logical analysis of a type similar to legal analysis. Interviewers may ask questions about the applicant’s interests and enthusiasms in order to ease the candidate into the interview, or in order to assess the candidate’s motivation. Knowledge of the law is not being assessed and is not relevant to the assessment of the interview. Sometimes, however, candidates may be given a legal extract to discuss. In this context, the only legal knowledge being sought is that which can be learnt from the extract.

 

It is compulsory for all candidates applying to study Law at Oxford in 2007 to sit the Law National Admissions Test (LNAT) before 1 November 2006. The same law test will also be used by a number of other universities. The expectation is that applicants will sit the test onscreen in a test centre near their home. It will be a test of their aptitudes rather than knowledge. Applicants’ performance in this test will be used as an additional factor in deciding whether interview is required for admission to Oxford. Test centres are now located internationally.

History and Economics

 

The Joint School of History and Economics integrates economics and history to form a coherent and intellectually stimulating programme. The combination allows insights that neither subject can realize alone. However, it is possible to specialize primarily in either history or economics while still preserving the benefits of an integrated approach. The combination of economics, economic history and history (political as well as social) means that students will be equipped to view issues in the real world from a variety of contrasting perspectives. They will learn both the historian’s careful approaches to evidence and argumentation and the economist’s analytical and quantitative methods, providing an excellent preparation for a range of professional, financial and academic careers.

 

The course is designed to equip students with the basic tools of both history and economics, whilst introducing them to some of the areas which they can study later in more depth. Students will be given a wide choice of subjects.

 

Everyone studies introductory economics, which is designed to give a solid understanding of the foundations of both micro- and macro-economics. The economics course is identical to that for Philosophy, Politics and Economics and students for both courses are generally taught together. Colleges also offer teaching in intro-ductory mathematics and statistics for economists.

 

History and Economics offers good preparation for a wide variety of careers. Some of the most popular options include working in industry, management consulting, the City, law, teaching and many branches of the public service, including the civil and diplomatic services, and the Bank of England.

Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE)

 

PPE brings together some of the most important approaches to understanding the social and human world around us, developing skills useful for a whole range of future careers and activities.

 

By studying philosophy, students will develop analytical rigour and the ability to criticize and reason logically, and be able to apply these skills to questions concerning how we acquire knowledge or how we make ethical judgments.

 

The study of politics will acquaint students with the institutions that make crucial decisions which govern our lives as members of nations, states and other political groupings. They will also learn how to evaluate the choices which political systems must regularly make, and about the processes that maintain or change those systems.

 

An appreciation of economics and the general workings of the economy has become increasingly necessary to make sense of government policy-making, the conduct of businesses and the enormous changes in economic systems occurring throughout the world. Economics focuses both on individual units and on the aggregate behaviour of groups, societies and international markets.

 

PPE offers a good preparation for a wide variety of careers, many linked to subjects studied at Oxford. The careers most commonly chosen are in banking and finance, politics, journalism and broadcasting, law, industry, teaching, social work, accountancy, business management, management consultancy, advertising and the many branches of the public services, including the civil and diplomatic services and local government.

 

 Course Summary for Philosophy, Politics and Economics (correct at January 2006)

 

 

 

 

Application Procedure

 

Students may apply for PPE having done any combination of subjects at school; it is not necessary to have studied philosophy, politics or economics. History and mathematics are useful backgrounds, but are not essential. Mathematical techniques are a compulsory part of the first year and a series of classes will be provided at a level appropriate to students’ mathematical background. Graduates of another university may skip the first year and complete the course in two years.

 

After submitting their application forms, students should send in two marked pieces of written school or college work, including at least one essay. Those already studying a subject related to PPE, such as philosophy, politics, economics, sociology, or 19/20^th century history, should submit essays from that subject. If students study more than one subject, they should send in essays from two different subjects.

·        BCL (Bachelor of Civil Law)

·        MJur (Magister Juris)

·        MSc Criminology and Criminal Justice

 

 

Entry Requirements

 

Students are selected for admission solely on the individual merits of each candidate and the application of the relevant selection criteria.

 

To these ends students submit a full CV including academic grades translated into English, a statement of why they wish to be accepted for the course, and one or two sample of their written work (depending on the course).

 

Three academic references are taken into consideration. Since the applications always exceed available places, the Law Faculty cannot admit every student who meets the basic entry requirements. In reviewing applications, qualitative admissions criteria are also employed. These criteria are listed on the Law Faculty website.

 

BCL and MJur are required to have earned a first class degree (or, where first class honours are not awarded, the equivalent) in Law as a necessary condition for entry.

 

MSc students would normally possess a first class or high upper second class (or its equivalent) degree in Law, Sociology, Economics, Psychology, History or another subject relevant to criminology.

 

 

Taught Master’s degrees

 

The Law Faculty has three graduate degrees based on taught courses:     

 

·        The Bachelor of Civil Law (MJur)

·        The Magister Juris (BCL)

·        The MSc in Criminology and Criminal Justice

 

 

Bachelor of Civil Law (BCL) and Bachelor of Magister Juris (MJur)

 

 

Despite its title, the BCL, like the MJur, is a Master’s degree. Both degrees set a high standard. They offer their students the opportunity to address law in a more profound and critical way than would have been possible at undergraduate level, especially as the courses are commonly intertwined with the current research projects of Faculty members. The range of courses available is large (and includes a dissertation option), and there are very few restrictions on combinations of choice. Admitting about 150 students a year from many different countries, the programmes facilitate shared scholarly interaction between some of the future leaders in the world’s law schools and legal profession.

 

The BCL and MJur are one-year degrees:  their programmes start in late September, and run until late July.

The MSc in Criminology and Criminal Justice

 

 This course is designed to provide students with an advanced understanding of crime and criminal justice. The degree will develop in students the ability to evaluate the major theories and fundamental concepts in criminology and criminal justice; the ability to analyse critically the inferences that can be drawn from empirical and historical observations of crime and the operation of the criminal justice and penal systems; an advanced understanding of particular fields within criminology and criminal justice, relevant to their further careers or academic studies; and, by way of research methods modules, the ability to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the design of criminological research, develop research questions and designs, and, in future, conduct empirical research.

 

A single core module will run through the first two terms, combined with a number or other short optional modules (two to be chosen for the first term, two for the second term, and one for the third term), plus students will write a dissertation of 12,000 to 15,000 words during the third term. The core course normally consists of introductory lectures and weekly seminars over the first six weeks of term. In seminars students will assess the major theories of crime and the criminal justice system, exploring both historical and comparative approaches.

 

Topics covered will normally include:

 

·        Theories of crime

·        Key concepts in social research

·        Historical and contemporary penal debates

·        Justifications of punishment

·        Punishment in the community and prison

MPhil in Economics

 

This is a course recommended to most students coming to Oxford who do not already have a very good graduate coursework degree in economics from a very strong university. It is designed to provide training in Economics at the Postgraduate level, comparable to the first two years of the PhD programme in the best US universities. For those who do not progress to a doctorate, either at Oxford or elsewhere, the MPhil provides a solid grounding in the subject for a career as a professional economist. The Oxford faculty believes that these advantages fully justify the additional effort and costs involved in a two-year programme. The normal duration is two years, but a student may take longer in exceptional circumstances. Students normally write a thesis as part of their work for the degree; the thesis can be incorporated in a DPhil thesis, if the student goes on to the doctorate, and in this way it may be possible to obtain both degrees in around four years.

 

Although most students on the MPhil course have previous degrees in economics, there are always some whose undergraduate degree is in some other subject (mathematical subjects provide a particularly useful background). The two-year programme makes it feasible to begin economics at the graduate level and write a thesis.

 

At the beginning of the course, two weeks before the start of the Michealmas Term, there is an introductory course in mathematics. Those who have not done mathematics at university are very strongly advised to take it and others will find it useful as a fresher course.

 

At the end of the first year, there are three compulsory papers:

 

·        Macroeconomics

·        Microeconomics

·        Econometrics

 

Then in the second year, students write their thesis and prepare for two papers from a list of options. The thesis is up to 30,000 words in length, and must be submitted in the third week of the final term of the course. It can be an intelligent survey of some part of the literature, but quite often contains original research.

 

  

http://www.admin.ox.ac.uk/postgraduate/caz/econ.shtml

 

 

 

MSc in Economics for Development

 

This MSc is a one year specialist degree concerned with the economics for developing countries. The scope of the course is extensive covering economic theory and application across a wide range of topics. These includes:

 

·        The Microeconomics of Household and Markets in Developing Countries

·        Human Development

·        Rural Development

·        International Macroeconomics and Globalisation

·        Industrial Policy and Trade

·        International Institutions and Adjustments

 

In addition students take courses in quantitative techniques and have the opportunity to pursue their own research interests by writing a short supervised research paper (the Extended Essay). The course aims to equip students policymaking, as well as providing the advanced training required for doctoral research in development economics.

 

The examinations consist of papers in Economic Theory, Development Economics and Quantitative Methods. In addition, candidates are required to submit an Extended Essay on a topic related to the general programme. Candidates for this course should have a good first degree in economics, with appropriate quantitative skills.

MSc in Financial Economics

 

The Master’s in Financial Economics is taught jointly by members of the Economics Department ad the Saïd Business School, although teaching takes place in SBS. It is a nine-month programme that will provide graduates with an outstanding training in the tools of the financial economics sought by the financial institutions, companies and public organizations. It is also designed for students wishing to pursue doctoral degrees in finance.

 

Through courses in Asset Pricing, Microeconomics, Financial Econometrics, and Corporate Finance it will equip students with a thorough grounding in the study of financial economics. In addition to these core courses, students will be able to develop their own specialist knowledge and map out their future careers through a project report and through their choice of elective courses.
