Social Policy examines the ways in which societies distribute resources and develop services to meet individual and social needs. Key social policy issues examined include poverty; economic, race, age and gender inequality; social justice health; education; criminal justice and housing.

It utilises a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods to improve our understanding of how societies organise their resources to meet individual and social needs and how they measure progress in these areas. 

This program gives you the opportunity to learn more about the social and economic challenges facing Scottish society and place these in a broader international perspective. It draws on disciplines such as history, sociology, anthropology, economics, law, psychology, social anthropology and politics.

Human Resource Management (HRM) covers areas such as recruitment and selection, training and developing and managing conflict at work. These are an important part of the management process in all organisations.

Study with us

• Examine the ways in which societies distribute resources and develop services
• Study the relationship between employers and employees and the ways in which people are managed in the workplace
• Address some of the major questions of our time, such as how social policy should adapt to a changing global, digital, connected and information-rich world
• Our BA degrees in Humanities & Social Sciences are initially broad-based. In Year 1, you'll study three subjects, including your chosen subject(s)

There are a number of ways you can study law at Strathclyde, one such way being the BA degree in combination with another subject.

Law is concerned with the study of the obligations, duties and rights which every member of society has in relation to one another and to the state.

The study of law is regarded not as purely vocational, but part of a broader education. Please note, however, that studying law within the BA degree will not qualify you for entry to the legal profession. For professional qualifications in Law students follow the LLB programme.

Education is essential if you're hoping to study initial teacher education courses. We offer you the chance to develop knowledge of the education systems of Scotland and beyond, looking at issues including policy, social justice, equity and inclusion.

Combining education with other subjects provides opportunities for those who wish to work in professions associated with education, but who don't wish necessarily to become teachers. Please note that this course doesn't allow you to qualify as a teacher, though joint honours Education graduates will be able to explore postgraduate routes into teaching careers (via the Professional Graduate Diploma in Education).

Study with us

• Opportunity to put theory into practice in a community placement and enhance your employability
• Develop your knowledge and understanding of the education systems of Scotland and beyond
• Experience research-informed, evidence-based teaching by internationally-recognised professionals
• Opportunity to progress to a Professional Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) Primary/Secondary
• Our BA degrees in Humanities & Social Sciences are initially broad-based. In Year 1, you'll study three subjects, including your chosen subject(s)

What do 3D TV, digital cameras, smartphones, the iPad and sports instant replay have in common? They're all examples of technology which have been developed combining skills from both Computer Science and Electronic Engineering. These subjects have become increasingly intertwined in recent years, so there is a need for engineers with the ability to create and embed intelligence into the products and systems of the future.

Engineers with operational and technical expertise in both electronics and software engineering are needed to design the next generation of computer apps, interactive vehicle robotic agents that monitor driver information and respond accordingly, or digital cinema technology. This degree is designed to produce these skilled professional engineers.

We have very high student satisfaction and graduate employment rates, and offer an extensive industry-supported scholarship programme.

This is one of the few UK degrees with triple accreditation from the IET, BCS and Science Council.

Study with us

• Learn how to design electronic systems and use software engineering to develop the next generation of digital technology
• Access to IET Power Academy & Scholarship programme with paid work placements
• Gain international experience through studying abroad
• Triple professional accreditation by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Engineering Council and British Computer Society means you can choose to become a Chartered Engineer, IT Specialist or both

Our MSc Artificial Intelligence & Applications is a conversion degree designed specifically for graduates without a computing science background.

It's based on the Office for Artificial Intelligence’s 2018 recommendations for AI Masters courses. You'll learn not just core AI-techniques, but how to place them within a business context so as to show their value.

A skills shortage, particularly around machine learning, means graduates are in high demand. This degree is designed to give you the skills to get ahead of the AI-driven transformation in our economy and society. You'll gain transferable skills to prepare you for a professional career in AI and its applications. These are expected to cover all aspects of society both within the tech sector, as well as outside, including:

• Education
• Engineering
• Health
• Finance
• Government
• Manufacturing
• Retail
• Transport

The course runs parallel to the MArch/Pg Diploma in Advanced Architectural Design. It shares the same curriculum so you’ll join students on this course in an exciting and challenging environment.

You’ll develop skills in advanced design, analysis and architectural critique designing complex buildings in a variety of contexts and addressing social, cultural and environmental issues.

This course demands a high level of design ability and self-motivation.

A biomedical scientist is a scientist trained in biology, particularly in the context of medicine. These scientists work to gain knowledge on the main principles of how the human body works. They try to find new ways to cure or treat disease by developing advanced diagnostic tools or new therapeutic strategies.

Biomedical science represents an opportunity to put scientific knowledge into practical use. It performs a key role in medical healthcare and offers career satisfaction for many in the profession.

As a biomedical scientist, your skills and qualifications will be recognised across the UK and worldwide.

Our course offers a more general degree than the specialist joint Honours biosciences degree programmes. You’ll follow the same curriculum up to Year 3, but instead of specialising in only two biomedical science options, you’ll take classes selected from all four areas, developing a broad understanding of all the biomedical sciences.

Study with us

• Learn at a pioneering academic institution
• Our Institute of Pharmacy & Biomedical Sciences (SIPBS) is a leading centre for research focused on new medicines, better medicines and better use of medicines
• Courses are underpinned by our strong research base, links with industry, the NHS and international partners
• Our Biomedical Science BSc is accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science and Royal Society of Biology

Business analysis applies advanced analytical methods to business problems to help managers make better decisions while technology is at the heart of all modern business.

Organisations need business graduates with expertise in business technology. Business analysts have an excellent general awareness of how a business works. They’re also able to apply advanced analytical methods to deal with specific management issues.

This joint degree bridges the gap between business analysis & technology, mathematics and statistics.

Our course emphasises how maths can be used to solve practical problems. Statistics can be used to explore and explain the uncertain world we live in.

You’ll develop mathematical and statistical expertise at the same time as broadening your skills in the largest Business School in Scotland (and one of the largest in Europe).

Our flexible degree structure enables transfer between courses.

Study with us

• Gain an understanding of the impact on organisations of developments and issues in business technology
• Understand how mathematics is applied to solve practical problems
