Philosophy, Politics, and the Public is a rigorous, interdisciplinary four-year honors program at Xavier University. PPP students understand the diversity and complexity of the public sphere through demanding academic study in philosophy, political science, history, economics, and beyond, and engage in public action, through internship work in politics, government, and civil society, and policy advocacy. PPP graduates are public leaders and engaged citizens, working in law, government, politics, elections, education, and the private sector.
