BSc Social Science
This programme allows you to study across the social science spectrum - Criminology, Education, Psychology, Sociology, Social Analytics, Social Policy - and think outside of conventional disciplinary boundaries.
It is an excellent opportunity to study an interdisciplinary degree, allowing you to combine the theories and methods of the different disciplines to increase your knowledge and understanding.
This programme will introduce you to a range of social science perspectives and methods. You can build on this foundation by choosing modules that reflect your own academic and career interests.
The unique flexibility of this programme allows you to sample a broad mix of topics from across a wide range of available options, or you can organise your studies thematically and gain multiple perspectives of the same topic, such as gender, ethnicity and inequality.
