Annotation
This is a research-orientated degree programme in which the perspectives of sociology (e.g. social inequality, health sociology and social structure analysis) and political science (e.g. international relations, European societies) are supplemented by contributions from other disciplines (educational science, psychology, history, etc.). In terms of content, the degree course is characterised by its advanced and in-depth analysis of the processes of intertwined social systems, institutions and individuals. The Master's degree programme in Social Sciences provides students with the skills to theoretically analyse and empirically research social science issues, particularly in the fields of successful lifestyles, the discussion of a good society, education and society, as well as issues of participation and sustainability; to derive recommendations for action and to engage in scientific communication. In the MA programme, in-depth skills in qualitative and quantitative methods are acquired. The aim of the course is to enable social scientists to think through scientific or practical problems from different perspectives, to classify them in a larger social context and to work on them in a well-founded manner with scientific methods appropriate to the subject.
