Course Overview

Today’s media industry expands beyond traditional print and broadcast journalism. It includes professional bloggers and vloggers, freelance writers and editors, podcasters, people working in entertainment TV, radio, or film, creators of video games and interactive apps, promoters of ideas and products, and many others.

The most successful professionals in today’s media are highly skilled in reporting, writing, editing and pitching their material, and they're also excellent communicators online and offline and problem-solvers. They're innovative and entrepreneurial, bold and curious, open-minded and collaborative. These are also some of Strathclyde’s core values, which guide our own teaching, research, and public engagement.

Social Policy examines how societies distribute resources and develop services to meet individual and social needs. Critical social policy issues discussed include poverty; economic, race, age and gender inequality; social justice health; education; criminal justice and housing.

It utilises qualitative and quantitative methods to improve our understanding of how societies organise their resources to meet individual and social needs and how they measure progress in these areas. 

This programme allows you to learn more about Scottish society's social and economic challenges and place these in a broader international perspective. It draws on history, sociology, anthropology, economics, law, psychology, social anthropology and politics.
