International Bachelor in Social Sciences

The International Bachelor in Social Sciences is about investigating, understanding and explaining the social, economic and political conditions in society from an international perspective.

Social sciences study the relations between societal structures and agencies, for example examining change to the economic structures in a country, or the role of actors in changing societies.
