Course summary

What this course is about

UCAS code: L000

Here's what City College Norwich says about its Social Sciences course.

This course will equip you with the skills and knowledge to progress onto a range of social science vocations, or further study at postgraduate level and beyond. It will provide the skills and knowledge needed to interpret current issues and debates in society, to analyse and apply theories to various contemporary social issues and to demonstrate an understanding of the diverse ethical, cultural, social and political contexts in which key social issues arise. Across this course you will develop the skills to conduct social science research into these and other topics and critically evaluate research findings.

The first year of the course explores social science theories and debates. You will also develop academic and professional skills to equip you for higher education study and further vocational destinations. Topics in subsequent years will build upon year one, exploring topics in greater depth or learning new knowledge and skills that align specifically with psychology, sociology and criminology. The third year offers you the chance to use a year-long dissertation to focus in on any topic from the social sciences in which you're interested and which align with future career goals.

The honours degrees and foundation degrees offered at City College Norwich are awarded by the University of East Anglia (UEA) with whom we enjoy Associate College Status. This partnership means that you will graduate with a UEA degree and be able to access facilities at the UEA while you are studying with us.
