The B.A. in Humanities, Society and Culture: Politics and Society is a study of politics from political science and other social science perspectives with special emphasis on democratic transformation in modern Europe. Students can enjoy an interdisciplinary program lectured by an international faculty of specialists in Humanities and Social Sciences. Together they examine how political ideas are framed and manipulated in different social contexts.

In a global, interconnected world, societies are linked closer than ever. What does this mean for the future of national governments, and how has modern technology redefined societies to be governed? The B.A. in Humanities, Society and Culture: Politics and Society program is designed to give an overall understanding of how politics and society interact from perspectives of sociology, anthropology, religion, psychology, and economics.

Politics and Society students develop critical thinking, communication and research skills essential for careers in government, politics, journalism, diplomacy and business.

Beyond the classroom, you can also join student clubs like Model UN and Film Club, discuss current political issues with professors and local experts at an event like ‘Professors in the Pub’ or stop by one of our movie nights or poetry readings in the Library featuring professors and internationally published authors.
