Digital transformation, the climate crisis and globalization - these are some of the biggest challenges facing our society that the PPÖ department focuses on in its teaching and research. We develop theoretical and methodological tools to understand and help shape the sustainable and equitable development of society. To this end, we consider different perspectives and work together across disciplines. Our teaching constantly adapts to the changing economic and social environment - our students not only learn to understand problems, but can also reflect on them and find solutions.

The department bundles its research activities mainly through the "PPE Institute for Social and Institutional Change" (ISIC). The aim of the ISIC is to promote and make visible the unique approach of PPE research on social and institutional change. PPE research goes beyond classical multidisciplinary or interdisciplinary approaches by combining philosophy, political science and economics into transdisciplinary research.
