  Course description
  
  The MSc in Social Change, Standard Pathway, is similar to the research route, but offers a stand-alone one-year degree programme.
  
  Students will study Social Capital and Social Change, Methodology and Research Design (MARD), Data Analysis for Social Scientists, Qualitative Methods and several substantive modules from a list that includes such titles as:
  
   - Race, Ethnicity and Community
  
  - Citizenship and Identity
  
  - Social Theory and Cultural Identity
  
  - Social Movements
  
  - Democracy: Theory and Practice
  
  This degree will provide both quantitative and qualitative training.  It is aimed at those wishing to study the links between new globalising forces (eg modernization; democratization) and other changes in the social and political character of societies.
  
  Each masters student conducts a research dissertation project.  These projects cover the comparative analysis of gradual social change in different countries or regions.
