The BSc in International Social and Public Policy offers students a chance to explore how societies organize and deliver public services, and how policies shape social outcomes around the world. The program combines theories and practical skills across social sciences, focusing on key issues like inequality, welfare, and development. Students learn to analyze social problems critically, understand government and non-government responses, and develop ideas for creating fairer and more effective policies. The curriculum encourages students to think about the political and economic factors influencing social policy while gaining insights into real-world applications.

The program emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach, blending politics, economics, sociology, and international relations to give a broad understanding of how social policies operate globally. Throughout their studies, students are encouraged to engage with current policy debates and consider how different countries address shared social challenges. The program also includes opportunities for practical experience, promoting skills like research, analysis, and communication. This prepares students not just for further study but also for careers in government, NGOs, international organizations, or research roles focused on social issues and policy development.
