Programme Structure

Our joint honours degrees allow you to gain a disciplinary understanding both in core Social Policy analyses as well as another subject area. You will take core courses to understand how social policy affects different parts of society and will learn how different systems of social policy can result in very different relationships between the state and other actors. You will also learn the foundations of another discipline of your choosing (such as Economics, Politics, Sociology or Law) in the first two years. You can gain insights into particular methods of understanding society (for example through the lens of legal studies or economic perspectives), but apply those to real-world problems that stretch beyond the reach of those disciplines to understand the impact particular decisions have on different parts of society.
