Description
The BSc in Social Science allows you to study across the social science spectrum - criminology, education, psychology, sociology, social analytics, social policy - and think outside of conventional disciplinary boundaries. It is an excellent opportunity to study an interdisciplinary degree, allowing you to combine the theories and methods of the different disciplines to increase your knowledge and understanding.
