This MA is especially suited to you if you are considering a career in social and public policy analysis, advocacy or research in the public sector or socially-focused NGOs. You'll gain skills in social research, policy analysis as well as key theoretical approaches.
You will be able to explore themes relating to demographic, economic, political and societal challenges. These include why patterns of social inequality persist across gender, race, ethnicity, and how social and public policy reforms (in UK and internationally) can address emerging issues such as climate change, care, labour market changeability.
