Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Sociology with Social Policy (Welsh Medium)

Program Overview

As well as examining national and global problems, such as inequality or climate change, our focus on Wales and Welsh issues provides a real sense of what is happening in local communities. You’ll consider pressing social issues like homelessness and lack of affordable housing, or poor broadband connection in the Welsh countryside.

The Welsh medium teaching team’s expertise led to the production of the ground-breaking ‘Pecyn Adnoddau Amlgyfrwng Cymdeithaseg’ series, currently used in schools and universities across Wales. Their subject-specific knowledge also encompasses social change and conflict, education, language, identities (race, democracy, nation), social issues (health, housing and social inequality), crime and justice, media, music, political action and technology.

This degree in Sociology and Social Policy provides a solid foundation in the key concepts and approaches of two complementary disciplines. Sociology examines the causes and impact of social problems, while Social Policy provides the insight to better address society’s needs and rights. The degree programme is also suitable for those with an interest in public administration. You will explore contemporary social and political issues, such as poverty, housing and education, identifying causes and solutions.

You’ll also hear first-hand experiences from those supporting social change. Guest speakers have previously included Race Council Cymru, Social Workers Without Borders, Action For Children, HM Courts and Tribunals Services, Gwynedd Council, and Antur Waenfawr. While visits to local and national government offices allow you to see policy making in progress within a devolved Wales.

We also offer an equivalent English language course BA (Hons) Sociology and Social Policy.
