Here's what University College London says about its Management for Social Change course.
The BSc Management for Social Change degree is designed for individuals who are passionate about changing society for the better. In today’s interconnected world, social movements can both unite and polarise people. It has never been more important to have managers that understand how to navigate the social and political climate to make a positive contribution in society.
Individuals can play an important role in making change happen, whether this involves change at a societal level or change to organisational policies and practices at a more micro-level.
Many social movements, including the campaigns for equal rights for all, climate change, and online safety, have started from individuals taking a stance and organising others to work together and initiate change.
The BSc Management for Social Change programme combines modules in politics, management, and social change to equip you with an understanding of how change takes place in society and the skills to lead and participate in change initiatives.
With the programme being taught at the UCL School of Management, you will develop fundamental business and management skills to be well-placed to secure a role in business.

The course is well structured and there is a good balance of mathematics and economics. The facilities are very well preserved and it's great to learn about UCL's history. Initiall...

The price of the course is overrated, especially as an international student. It was weird to not have any classes or support in term 3, especially for my course as we do not have exams for most of the modules. But we still had to pay for it, which was unreasonable.

The welfare services are helpful. But the academic support is not great, as the tutors tend to be very fixed with their assigned time and the help that I was given did not help me to engage in academics in a stimulating way.

Students are talking about University College London on The Student Room.
Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
