Sociology and Social Policy, BSc (Hons)

Our Sociology and Social Policy degree explores how societies work and how their futures can be shaped. From the local to the global, the personal to the structural, it examines key current challenges, critical debates, and real-life solutions. You will explore the key factors that shape our everyday experience of social life, as well as how society identifies needs, promotes wellbeing and allocates resources. You will examine major issues such as social justice, inequality, health, education and social movements, always connecting them to today’s trends and tomorrow’s possibilities.

We require a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 overall (with a minimum of 5.5 in each component) or equivalent English language qualification. Please see the Swansea University admissions English language requirements page for a full list of accepted qualifications and tests.
