Course summary
Our BSc International Social and Public Policy explores some of the big questions we face in society around poverty, welfare, migration and gender equality. Youll look at how social policies are formulated and implemented in industrialised societies, transition economies and the Global South, and explore the role of states, the nonprofit sector, financial markets and communities.
Drawing on LSEs interdisciplinary strengths across the social sciences, youll study each topic from social, political demographic and economic perspectives – enabling you to develop a well-rounded understanding of these complex issues.
At LSE, youll learn in a department with outstanding research and teaching credentials. Our Department of Social Policy was ranked number 1 in the most recent research excellence evaluation (RAF, 2021) and our academics influence thinking and policy setting globally.
