Our degree enables you to explore issues like globalisation, human rights, migration, shifting geopolitical power and the socio-political effects of global climate change. Processes of globalisation increasingly shape societies all across the world as they influence local labour markets, patterns of consumption, cultural practices and social values, but also domestic and local politics. On this course, you'll study fundamental subjects in sociology, from social modernisation, communities and the changing role of social identities such as gender, race and class, alongside key political issues like the changing role of the state and growing power of international organisations. The Foundation year in Social Sciences takes place the year before your degree. It will provide you with a solid grounding of knowledge and study skills in preparation for your degree. You will study four year-long modules that cover all subject areas that make up the social and behavioural sciences. The subjects covered on this course are criminology, sociology, psychology, economics and politics. You will develop a foundation knowledge of these subjects and begin to explore the boundaries and overlap between these inter-related disciplines.
