Undergraduate Degree Programmes
The Cardiff School of Social Sciences is a thriving centre of teaching and research in the fields of Sociology, Educational Studies, Psychosocial Studies (Psychology), Social Policy, Criminology and Social Work, with an international reputation in all areas. Around 350 undergraduates join the School each year.
The School offers full degree programmes in Education, Criminology, Social Policy, Sociology and Social Science.
There are also two British Psychological Society (BPS) accredited pathways in psychology: Education BPS and Social Science BPS
The degrees in Education, Social Policy and Criminology can be studied in combination with each other and subjects in other departments. All the degree programmes are modular and designed to deliver the central tenets of their respective disciplines whilst leaving students free to exercise choice and select modules reflecting their personal interests and needs. In each year of their degree students are required to study a number of compulsory core modules and a selection from the range of modules offered with the School as a whole.
