The University of Bath is launching a new Masters Programme in
International Social Policy, commencing in September 2007. The programme
includes both the comparative analysis of social policy developments in
different countries and world regions, and the analysis of global social
policy-making at the supra-national level. It gives central attention to
the links between social policy and economic development, including the
rise of knowledge-based economies and the new risks of insecurity with
which globalisation is associated. The programme comprises a mix of
compulsory and optional modules taken over two semesters, followed by a
dissertation, enabling students to tailor their degree to suit their
specific interests. There will be a number of joint activities with
international organisations and with partner universities in Europe, East
Asia and elsewhere.
Deadline for applications: July 15, 2007
