Additional information

Unit content:

In Knowledge in the Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities, we build on academic skills and disciplinary concepts. Rather than studying specific subjects, students will be asked to explore an area of interest under the theme of ‘Social Change’.  This broad scope gives students the opportunity to explore their passions (anything from pop-culture to genetic engineering and everything in between!) while at the same time developing strong academic foundations for their future studies.  They will also learn how to express these ideas in writing, develop well-researched arguments and think critically about the world around them. The style of the course activates students to develop confidence and become independent learners in a supportive environment.
