Explore the issues that shape our lives, communities and future with our BSc in Sociology and Social Policy. Social policy looks at how societies respond to people’s needs and work to improve wellbeing. Sociology helps you understand how people live, connect and interact within groups, institutions and wider society. You’ll learn to question what you see, interpret evidence with confidence and apply ideas to real-world problems. We use a wide range of data and approaches to explore today’s most pressing social issues and help you make your own contribution to understanding and improving society.
