BA (Hons) Education & Social Services

University of Strathclyde, United Kingdom
Save

Course Overview

This innovative degree is a joint venture between the University of Strathclyde and three further education colleges - Glasgow Kelvin College, Glasgow Clyde College and New College Lanarkshire.

The degree aims to prepare you for working in settings which combine health education and social work/social care. You’ll enter college at a Diploma of Higher Education level, having first studied a relevant HNC. You’ll then go to Year 3 at Strathclyde to look for the BA.

The Education & Social Services (BA) responds to the Scottish Government’s aspiration for different services to communicate more effectively and to work in a more integrated way to meet the service-user needs of children, young people and adults. A primary aim of the degree is to develop the leadership qualities and skills required for this challenge.
