Career opportunities

BSc Social Science prepares graduates with the skills necessary for a wide range of employment sectors, including a detailed knowledge of the working of contemporary societies. These skills are in increasing demand amongst employers, and recent research has shown that social science graduates are highly employable. In 2013, a report titled “What do social science graduates do?”, published by the Campaign for Social Science, revealed that “3.5 years after graduating, the proportion of social science graduates in employment is higher than that of graduates of STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) or the arts-humanities” and that a “higher proportion of social science graduates are in managerial and senior official roles than graduates of STEM or arts-humanities subjects, at the same point in time”.
