| Programme description | In social science, you study politics in a broad sense – the structure of society, the political system and how citizens, organisations and political leaders work together and influence each other. A Master’s degree programme with social science as the main subject leads to an MSc (Social Science) degree. The main subject in social science can be combined with a subsidiary subject such as mathematics, physical education and sport, languages, history, pictorial art, business administration or the study of religion. The department emphasises that the teachers in the Master’s degree programme must be permanent academic staff and the teaching of a high academic standard based on current research. Students with a completed Bachelor’s degree in social science and the first part of a subsidiary subject qualify for admission to the Master’s degree programme with social science as the main subject. Another option is a special single-subject line of the Master’s degree programme, in which you can enrol if you have completed a Bachelor’s degree and the first part of the subsidiary subject in social science. A Master’s degree programme (120 ECTS credits) with social science as the main subject consists of: a subsidiary subject corresponding to 45 ECTS credits politology seminars corresponding to 45 ECTS credits a thesis corresponding to 30 ECTS credits The politology seminars are subject to a requirement for diversification to ensure that the following three main areas are covered: comparative politics international politics sociology The single-subject line includes the second part of the subsidiary subject in social science instead. The single-subject line has the same structure, but with the difference that the 45 ECTS credits for the subsidiary subject are used for the second part of the subsidiary subject in social science. Overall, you therefore get a Master’s degree with an amount of social science subjects that is somewhere between that of a subsidiary subject and a main subject. |
