<p>I've recently developed an interest in this major - PPE.</p>

<p>I know, thanks to Wikipedia, that it is offered at Yale, UPenn, Wesleyan, Pomona, and Claremont McKenna. </p>

<p>Is anyone aware of any other competitive universities or colleges that offer PPE as a major?</p>

<p>Duke offers it as a certificate. It's like a major, but instead of needing 10 classes to fulfill the requirements, you only have to take 8.</p>

<p>Edit--Here's a link to the website:

<p>Oxford University in England. Like most social sciences/humanities BA degrees in the UK, it takes only 3 years to complete. Oxford/Cambridge engineering and natural sciences undergraduate degrees normally require 4 years of study though, like in the US. </p>

<p>For more information on PPE at Oxford, click [url=<a href="http://www.admissions.ox.ac.uk/courses/ppec.shtml%5Dhere%5B/url"&gt;http://www.admissions.ox.ac.uk/courses/ppec.shtml]here[/url&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/p>
