This future-focused programme is designed to equip students for the 21st century workplace and a world defined by increased connectivity and rapid technological change. It aims to bring an applied focus to the Social Sciences, providing students with the opportunity to actively engage with areas such as social entrepreneurship and cultural innovation, as well as the chance to gain valuable work experience.
The programme is defined by both flexibility and focus, as students have the opportunity to explore multiple disciplines, before going on to specialise in their area of choice.
The BA in Social Sciences and Cultural Innovation also places a strong emphasis on the development of transferable skills, such as creativity, leadership, ethical and critical thinking, digital literacy, intercultural competence, and future thinking, all which have been identified as important for 21st century living and working. With this in mind, parallel to studying Social Sciences, each year students will undertake a variety of modules which focus on fostering these transferable skills. Furthermore, students have the possibility of studying for a year abroad after Year 2, and students can also opt to apply for a year-long INTRA work placement in Year Three, which can provide students with excellent experience and a valuable professional network while still in university.
At its core, the BA in Social Sciences and Cultural Innovation recognises the value of having in-depth knowledge in specific disciplines, but also the need for graduates to develop the competencies which underpin growth and success across any field. In doing so, the programme seeks to enable students to identify their key interests, and empower them to pursue these with competence, clarity and confidence.
