Social Sciences, BA Hons FullTime

Some of the course content could be updated or more interesting especially as it's first year and a lot of people dropped out as they didn't find it challenging or interesting. Also at some points I felt like some lecturer's were very harsh and didn't take the time to go through some vital parts of the course. read more

But the variety of topics and modules we cover is amazing, from sociology to behavioural studies, to law, to criminology and then into learning about the history of the police. I have enjoyed the first year of this course very much and hope the next 3 years follow the same trend read more
