An Oxford-inspired, U.S.-accredited Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics delivered in a transatlantic academic environment.
PPE Online is being developed as a joint academic collaboration between American degree-granting institutions and European faculty. The program integrates the U.S. undergraduate structure with the Oxford model of interdisciplinary PPE education and European tutorial-based teaching traditions.

Our model combines institutional partnership, intellectual rigor, and technological innovation to advance a new era of cross-Atlantic collaboration.

An Oxford-inspired education, reimagined across the Atlantic
Our PPE curriculum unites philosophy, politics, and economics within a refined transatlantic framework, bringing together the intellectual traditions of Europe and the United States in a single, coherent academic experience.
An intimate academic setting
Classes are deliberately small, ensuring that each student is fully engaged, known, and intellectually challenged. Here, education is not anonymous — it is personal, rigorous, and dialogical.
Live seminars as the core of learning
Teaching takes place in real time, through seminars and tutorials led by distinguished international faculty. Students participate in an ongoing exchange of ideas, where argument, analysis, and reflection are central.
Individual mentorship and intellectual direction
Each student benefits from close academic guidance, with the freedom to pursue elective concentrations aligned with their ambitions, culminating in a capstone research project of original scholarship.
A global intellectual community
The Academy brings together a carefully selected international student body, fostering a culture of thoughtful inquiry and perspective that extends well beyond national boundaries.
Professional formation in an international context
Through curated virtual and in-person internships, students develop the experience and confidence required to navigate complex global environments.
Selective in-person experiences
Summer and Winter Schools, alongside PPE societies, offer opportunities for in-person engagement, strengthening both intellectual exchange and community.
Transatlantic collaboration as a defining principle
At Transatlantic Academy, collaboration between Europe and the United States is not an addition — it is foundational. The program is designed to build enduring academic and institutional connections across continents.
PPE Online is currently in preparation as a long-term institutional collaboration between American universities and European academic partners.
