Social Policy entails the study of those social relations shaping human welfare and wellbeing. It also includes the analysis of the means by which governments achieve citizen's wellbeing through the formation of policies, provision of services and responding to social issues and problems. Undergraduate study of Social Policy fits with a commitment to advance the cause of a just, pluralistic, and sustainable society. The course encourages engagement with wider society and civic engagement through modules on issues such as refugee policy, housing and ageing and the life course, youth, reproductive rights, social inequality and disability. A global outlook is a reoccurring and integral part of the course. Our curriculum aims to give you a thorough training in the systematic analysis of contemporary social issues and the role of social policy in comparative country contexts. At the end of your four years you should have developed both a general understanding of the field of social policy and specific expertise in select contemporary policy issues, the process of policymaking and the skills of research, analysis and argumentation applicable to the policy arena.
