| What it is | Social Sciences is the study of how people, societies, and economies work — covering everything from politics and law to anthropology and economics. Unlike a specialist program in one subject, this degree lets you combine courses across multiple disciplines so you can explore what interests you most. It suits students curious about human behaviour, culture, institutions, and social change who want flexibility to discover their focus before committing to a narrow path. | You study both political science and law together in a single six-year program, rather than pursuing them separately. Political science teaches you how governments, institutions, and policies actually work; law gives you the training needed to become a lawyer, including courtroom procedures and legal reasoning. This combined stream suits people who want to understand politics deeply and work as lawyers in government, policy, or public interest law. | This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus. | A social sciences degree at King's combines the study of people, societies, and human behaviour through subjects like history, politics, economics, psychology, and sociology. You choose a major or specialization within one of these fields — for example, criminology, social work, or economics — and develop deep knowledge in that area while taking supporting courses across the social sciences. This program suits students curious about how societies work, why people act as they do, and what shapes institutions and policy. |
