Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Social Sciences with Placement Year
Program Overview
Focus on contemporary issues of social change and justice with a course that gives you the freedom to study a broad range of social science topics.
This course allows you to explore the areas of social science that you are most interested in. Its interdisciplinary nature covers topics such as sociology, international development, social policy and criminology.
You’ll study these in depth and develop relevant research skills. We’ll support you to build your degree around your aims and aspirations. You can also take units focused on economics, psychology and management for an even more diverse experience.
In Year 1, you’ll develop your understanding of how society works and the factors that influence social change. You’ll study social policy and sociology, as well as optional criminology and international development units. Through tutorials focused on developing key academic skills, you’ll also learn how to evaluate data and information to develop arguments for different audiences.
Year 2 will develop your understanding of research methods and sources of data. You’ll be able to continue a broad-based approach or choose to specialise in specific areas - such as policy, social theory, or justice and conflict.
In your final year, you’ll do your dissertation. This will make use of a range of methodological skills you’ll develop during the course. You'll also choose from a range of optional units from across the social sciences. These will allow you to build upon the theoretical understanding you’ll gain during years 1 and 2 and apply it to contemporary sociological issues.
The flexibility of this course will allow you to create a degree that’s tailored to your interests and potential future career.
