Study the economy through a politics lens
Join a community of experts in London
You’ll be taught by staff with international reputations for research in their disciplines and areas of specialisation, including among others:
Goldsmiths is based in New Cross, a vibrant area in one of the most culturally diverse cities in the world, just 10 minutes from London Bridge. This programme will also allow you to benefit from its location in a global city, home to major cultural, scientific, artistic, and political institutions, movements and NGOs that play world-leading roles in furthering political and economic knowledge, thought, and practice. You will join a series of job talks and masterclass workshops from insiders at policy Think Tanks, NGOs, and the private sector.
Careers
Political organisations relish free-thinking graduates. It's why we focus on delivering a programme rooted in a critical perspective. By the time you leave, we want you to feel transformed so that you can go forward and bring that transformation out into the world.
This MA is ideal for anyone pursuing a career in policy research, NGOs, advocacy, charities, international organisations, cultural and political activism, global media, as well as for further academic work. In the two years since the first MA Global Political Economy cohort graduated, our students have gone on to work in political risk insurance, sustainable finance, environmental and trade justice advocacy, and have won scholarships for PhD research.
