Ben Lockley, MA Politics
"I came to Birmingham initially for an undergraduate degree in Political Science, loved it, and am now completing a Masters in Politics. I’m particularly interested in elections, gerrymandering, and American politics. While at Birmingham I’ve enjoyed getting involved in the multitude of political societies on offer, as well as social sports like skiing, and exploring everything the city has to offer from food to entertainment. I really value how friendly everyone on the course is, the time lecturers give to students, and most of all the depth of expertise within the department."
