You'll study core modules in interdisciplinary social science and sociology, giving you a firm grounding in ideas central to the social sciences. This will be combined with exploring psychology through a range of real-world issues, including love, sexuality and artificial intelligence, before opting to study either social psychology or counselling and forensic psychology. On completion, you’ll be able to apply psychological and social theories to a range of issues, using data analysis and analytical techniques to understand a variety of topics that affect individuals and society.
