BA (Hons) Childhood & Youth

... United Kingdom
... Liverpool Hope University

Course Overview

With a degree in Childhood and Youth, you can enter several careers, including youth and community work, local government, housing, health or educational sectors, and the criminal justice and legal system as researchers, administrators, or managers.

Successful graduates can also study for postgraduate degrees that give them specific expertise in Childhood and Youth. Childhood and Youth graduates will also be particularly well qualified to apply for MA in Social Work.

Childhood & Youth is an exciting, multidisciplinary subject in which you will explore various issues and challenges children, and young people face in contemporary society, both here in the UK and on a global level. Drawing on key ideas from sociology, politics, history, social policy, and cultural studies, the degree examines important questions about children and young people and the social contexts in which they live.

Topics studied include: how children and young people’s place in society have changed over time; how social class, poverty, gender, ethnicity, disability, social policy, and so on impact children and young people’s lives; the role of risk and risk-taking in children and young people’s everyday lives and; how children and young people make sense of and help to shape their social worlds. In exploring such issues, you will also look at various political debates and policy initiatives and learn about multiple ways of researching with children and young people that aim to help them overcome the many challenges they face.

With its strong emphasis on social justice and welfare, the degree will enable you to develop as critical social scientists who value their role within the academic community at Hope and who, as graduates, will be able to use their skills and knowledge to the benefit of their local community and society more broadly.
