FUTURE CAREERS IN CRIMINOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL POLICY
Criminal Justice Education Local or UK Government
Policy Development Social Work Police Force
Prison Service Probation Service Youth Work
With a Social Policy degree there are endless options open to graduates in the public, private and third sectors. Before I started studying, I was very aware of the limits to my career without a degree – the degree can open up so many doors. For me, it is the gateway to a master’s in Research Methods. I hope to have a long career in which I can combine the two (Social Policy and research methods).
