While studying politics at Sussex, you will learn about ideas, issues and institutions.
You’ll analyse how people defend their interests and how those in power make policy, but are also held to account for their decisions. Working with our UK and international experts, you will study UK politics and compare it with politics in other countries.
Brighton is one of the UK’s most politically diverse cities. Our award-winning Politics Society welcomes figures from across the political spectrum to talk to you, including current UK politicians such as Caroline Lucas and former Deputy Prime Minister Michael Heseltine.
There’s no substitute for visiting a country and experiencing first-hand how it operates politically. Our four-day Berlin trip allows you to meet politicians in the German Bundestag and discuss politics with German students.
Internship
As a final-year student, you can apply for a competitive internship with a Westminster MP or in local government with Brighton & Hove City Council.
