In this latest and greatest episode, we enlist PPE’s very own Sam Weir to help us understand the value of a PPE economics major. As a shining example of an economic policy expert in the making, Sam chats to veteran Statecraft reporter Eloise about how his learning experience has allowed him to keep a foot in both the quantitative analysis and political decision-making camps. If you listen very carefully, you might just be able to deduce that his econ major has allowed Sam to obtain that most coveted of positions: a grad role offer. While talk of regression analysis and econometrics may have left us at the Publications Editorial team scratching our heads, Sam’s polished presentation skills and ability to distil complex information made for a cogent and digestible interview. We thank him for offering us and our listeners a clear insight into how PPE differs from other econ-related degrees, and of course for plugging Al Stark’s course.
