| What it is | # Arts Degree (BA) + Master's Degree (MA or MAP or MIPP) You complete a four-year bachelor's degree in one of these humanities or social fields — English, History, languages, Politics, Social Policy, or Religious Studies — then continue directly into a related master's program without applying separately. This combined route saves time and lets you specialize deeper than a BA alone. It suits students who know they want advanced training in humanities or policy work and prefer a streamlined path from undergrad through graduate study. | Social Science is the study of how societies work: economics, history, politics, psychology, and international development. You choose which subjects to focus on and how to combine them, rather than following a single fixed path. This program suits students curious about human behaviour, institutions, and global problems who want flexibility to explore multiple angles rather than specializing early. | This four-year combined degree integrates the study of conflict, human rights, security, and defence policy across social science and humanities perspectives. Unlike separate bachelor's and master's programs, you complete both degrees as one continuous stream, allowing you to move quickly from foundational concepts to advanced research and analysis. It suits students interested in understanding international relations, peace-building, or policy work who want deeper expertise than a single undergraduate degree provides. |
