<p>PPE is NOT like a triple minor, and those who tell you it is are severely misguided!</p>
<p>PPE is an inter-disciplinary course of study which combines aspects of philosophy, politics, psychology and economics in order to give you a strong foundation in the social sciences. Every PPE major must declare a concentration to focus their studies, and they must also do a capstone seminar, resulting in a significant paper on a topic of their choice.</p>
<p>PPE is a major that MANY people interested in the social sciences enter Penn with the intention of completing, only to find that they actually enjoy one of Philosophy, Politics OR Economics, and so they declare that as their major instead.</p>
<p>Also, it is certainly possible to do a triple minor. You must declare a major, but you can declare as many majors and minors as your heart desires as long as you maintain a GPA, have a general idea of when you will graduate and have the means to attend Penn financially.</p>
