UMBC will begin offering a new cooperative program in Philosophy, Politics, Economics, and Law (PPEL) starting Spring 2026!
The gateway course, PPEL 250, will be offered for the first time this spring.
This course introduces students to interdisciplinary approaches to understanding institutions, decision-making, and justice, making it a great fit for those interested in public policy, law, or social analysis.
Students majoring in Political Science or Economics will find it especially easy to add the PPEL Certificate, as several courses from those majors also count toward the certificate requirements.
You can find more information about the program and PPEL 250 in the attached flyer.
