This integrated four-year route combines Year 0 of the International Foundation Programme with Warwick's degree in Human, Social and Political Sciences. The International Foundation Programme provides a strong foundation in the key ideas, theories, and methods used to understand how societies function and change. You will develop the analytical, research, and communication skills needed to study social issues critically and engage with real-world challenges from multiple perspectives.Throughout the course, you will explore how social, political, and cultural forces shape our world, examining topics such as power, justice, identity, and cultural representations. You will also learn to evaluate evidence, interpret data, and present well-structured academic arguments. Alongside this, you will strengthen your ability to collaborate, debate, and think independently, which are skills essential for success in higher education and beyond. By the end of this first year, students will have developed the academic foundations and be well prepared to progress Year 1 of BA Human, Social and Political Sciences.This degree programme brings together various disciplines by focusing on key questions such as: How can human behaviour, social structures, and political systems be analysed through an integrated lens? What factors contribute to social change? How do social and political changes affect individuals and groups within society? How can global and local problems be solved? You will search for answers to these questions by examining individuals and groups within larger social and political contexts and society as a whole.The course aims to encourage a cross-cutting, multifaceted, and critical understanding of theoretical and methodological debates in social science research, by developing your theoretical and conceptual interdisciplinary knowledge and by enhancing your understanding of empirical research across disciplines. Studying this interdisciplinary programme, comprising insights from various social science perspectives, will enable you to make sense of a world undergoing unprecedented social change and uncertainty, and to work towards solutions for complex societal and global as well as local challenges.Drawing on the existing strength within the Faculty of Social Science unique aspects of this programme will be interdisciplinary learning, hands-on research opportunities on contemporary challenges, and work placement opportunities. You will explore cross-cutting areas such as: social justice, race and ethnic identities, ethno-national conflicts, artificial intelligence, climate change, social and political movements, gender, social and political theory, violence, religion, research methods.In addition to integrated core modules and work placement opportunities, you have the possibility to tailor your studies and to specialise in one of the core areas: Human Sciences, Social Sciences, Political Sciences, or Research Methods.An integrated, interdisciplinary approach will give a thorough, yet broad understanding of the surrounding issues, concepts and theories that relate to challenges of modern societies in a global perspective.
