| What it is | You study how to help people and communities solve social problems — poverty, family conflict, mental health, abuse — through practical counselling, advocacy, and resource connection. This degree trains you specifically for the profession of social work, meaning you learn both theory and hands-on skills, with placement experience in real agencies. It suits people who want to work directly with vulnerable people and aren't looking for a research-focused or policy-only path. | This program examines how gender and sex shape society, history, culture, and power across different fields like sociology, social work, and other disciplines. Unlike a straight sociology degree, it centres gender and feminist perspectives as the main lens for understanding social issues. It suits students interested in understanding inequality and social change, especially those drawn to activism, policy work, or community-based careers. |
