Why study this course

This program develops an understanding of how we make sense of the world and the questions we ask about it, challenging students to not just wonder why we ask these questions, but also what we can and should do with the answers we find. There is a strong emphasis on social research design, methods, practice and application across a range of data analysis techniques and technologies. This provides students with a flexible set of vocational skills and capabilities, offering an understanding of issues in culturally diverse social environments in local and global contexts. They are prepared for a wide variety of research and policy-related careers in both the private and public sectors.

Student review

This course was helpful and interesting but it did have a lack of practical experience useful in the workplace, seeming to be more focused on theory. It would have been nice to have more career advice at the beginning and throughout the course as this really wasn’t given whatsoever.

Great program with impressive teaching staff. Flexible enough to pursue own personal direction and interests in social science.
