No problem! Actually LMU is one of my "fallbacks" (I'm German) in case I don't find a programm abroad. I guess at the moment I am interested in political philosophy... But that is not a priority

So far I have been able to find one Bachelor of Philosophy progamme at KU Leuven (Belgium), but there are probably more programmes like that. Maybe you guys can help me out? My Google searches only turn up programmes in England/US...

Haha, i'm really unsure myself, thats why i'm looking for some input! PolSci just seemed like the subject closest to the matter (politics&policy). I guess you are talking about scientific journals, like nature or science for natural sciences? Can you recommend some to me? I would be very interested in taking a look at a few articles.

Hey everybody! I am a 21 years old physics student from Germany and i'm looking for advice on my further career path after i finished my Bachelors degree. My plan at the moment is to switch fields and pursue a career vaguely into the direction of PolSci or Economics. I am still a scientist at heart, so i want to pursue a research career in these fields, maybe dealing with the analysis of policies or the implementation of them. Also i am really interested in knowing more about the fundamentals of political systems, economics, international relations, philosophy and everything that merges together to form our day to day politics. I also want to be able to evaluate current political affairs mainly on my own, without the need to rely on the analyisis of others. I will finish my Bachelors next year, so i am currently trying to decide how to proceed. My three options are: a. 2nd Bachelors degree in a subject like Government & Economics, pure Economics, PPE (all preferably at a good university in England) followed by a Masters b. jump straight into some kind of graduate programm related to PolSci (Public Policy Analysis, Public Administration, Political Economics/Science) c. pursue a Masters in Theoretical Physics and switch fields later Option a. would give me good foundations and prepare me thoroughly for a subsequent Masters degree, as well as satisfying my curiosity for topics relevant to politics. However, it would take another three years (not thaaat big of a deal to me) Option b. is the fastest and certainly a possibility. Option c. is lazy but safe. A Master in Physics opens a lot of doors and i might also rediscover my lost passion for physics and stay. Overall i would like to put my mathematical skills to use, so something that is mathematically challenging is no problem and would be appriciated (Maths should not be the main focus though!). I would also prefer an overall challenging course with a heavy workload, rather than a course with to much free time, as i am used to that from my physics degree. So, what kind of programme would you recoomend to me? I am happy about any advice or opinion! tldr; Want to pursue research career dealing with the analysis of policies or implementation of policies. Have physics BSc. What to do?
