Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in English and Social Policy

Program Overview

As an English student at Strathclyde, you'll enjoy the best of old and new: a grounding in the classics as well as an insight into new fields of literature.

We'll show you how exciting and wide-ranging our subject can be. Employers like the skills developed in an English degree: written and verbal communication, analysis and discussion of ideas and broad, creative thinking.

Social Policy examines the ways in which societies distribute resources and develop services to meet individual and social needs. Key social policy issues examined include poverty; economic, race, age and gender inequality; social justice health; education; criminal justice and housing.

It utilises a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods to improve our understanding of how societies organise their resources to meet individual and social needs and how they measure progress in these areas. 

This programme gives you the opportunity to learn more about the social and economic challenges facing Scottish society and place these in a broader international perspective. It draws on disciplines such as history, sociology, anthropology, economics, law, psychology, social anthropology and politics.

Our BA degrees in Humanities & Social Sciences are initially broad-based. In Year 1, you'll study three subjects, including your chosen subject(s).

Study with us

  • Read texts from a wide range of literary periods, and debate key issues such as identity, race, gender, and what it is to be a human
  • Work with staff who are world-leading researchers and prize-winning novelists and poets and benefit from their cutting edge approaches to the study of literature, language, writing and theory
  • Cultivate employable skills in written and verbal communication, analysis of complex cultural ideas and creative thinking
  • Learn about the social and economic challenges facing both Scotland and the UK
  • Address some of the major questions of our time, such as how social policy should adapt to a changing global, digital, connected and information-rich world
