This combined degree program examines various approaches to understanding crucial aspects of public and social life. It merges Social Policy's emphasis on welfare with Sociology's perspective on modern societal functions.
In your Sociology coursework, you'll investigate societal frameworks and their role in shaping social trends. This examination may involve analyzing concepts and principles, identity classifications tied to attributes like gender, social class, or cultural background, or exploring sectors such as employment or schooling. Such study is fundamental to comprehending diverse societal groups' welfare experiences and the mechanisms required to transform unequal systems.
Social Policy studies offer a dynamic platform to critically assess current social concerns regarding human welfare, disparity, social disadvantage, and criminal activity. You'll tackle practical global challenges using frameworks from social science, political theory, public administration, and economic principles.
Both academic departments foster close connections between scholarly research and instruction, creating an energetic educational atmosphere where teaching evolves alongside new research findings.
