They focus on providing students with a platform to share their perspectives on topics related to Politics, Philosophy, and Economics. They have an annual print issue and an all-year online blog called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pep-voxjournal.co.uk\/\">Voxensus<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At Voxensus, you can read various shorter entries, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pep-voxjournal.co.uk\/contact\">submit your own<\/a><\/strong>. If you&#8217;re passionate about journalism and publishing, you might want to join their committee! There are loads of different roles available, such as editors, publicity officers, and proofreaders. It\u2019s a great stepping stone for internship and postgraduate press opportunities. They&#8217;re planning to host writing workshops and social events in the future too, so keep an eye out!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. <b>Club of PEP<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the second-oldest PPE department in the country, it\u2019s only fair that we have a tremendous academic society to represent us.

There are discussion groups and guest speakers on the academic side. On the more social side, there are barbecues and club nights. The highlight of the year has to be the annual PEP trip abroad. Last year was Dublin, Ireland; this year will be Budapest, Hungary. Is it okay that I&#8217;ve already started my countdown?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If Vox sounds interesting, but journals aren\u2019t your thing, try listening to the <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/3wVsgeBszxpX9n2IYox2Om?si=5e700391144c4c2c\">Club of PEP podcast, PEPtalk<\/a>.
