An Online Education in Liberty

Through a partnership with the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, The King’s College offers two online classes that explore dimensions of liberty from ancient philosophy up through contemporary economic and political thought. These courses integrate politics, philosophy, and economics in the same style as the Oxford PPE degree and The King’s College’s core curriculum. Students read great thinkers from across the liberal arts to understand why tradition of liberty is vital and how it can best be defended.
