The UWS BA (Hons) in Social Sciences focuses on the central themes of social justice, power and inequalities.

 

The first two years of this degree equip you with a firm grounding in the essential disciplines of politics, policy and sociology.

 

After this, you can choose to follow one of three specialist pathways at both Paisley and Lanarkshire campuses:

• Politics and Policy
• Sociology and Policy
• Sociology

 

Investigating social and political change, you will explore both how we understand society and how we can change it for the better, developing your critical thinking alongside a wide range of research and transferable skills that are highly valued by the public, private and voluntary sectors.
