I found all aspects of my degree very enjoyable. There wasn’t a topic or module that wasn’t interesting. It really did give me a helping hand to get my first ‘real’ paid job. I would advise people to volunteer with a charity alongside their degree as it is all well and good gaining the academic knowledge but you really need some hands on experience to go alongside.
GEORGINA EADON Social Policy, BSc (Hons)
Being a student at Swansea was the best time of my life. I met so many people and grew so much as a person. I really found my voice and became the strong woman I believe I am today. I love my job. I cover five prisons across Wales and get to see the different types of prisons from remand, private to open.
REBEKAH SUTTON Criminology & Criminal Justice, BSc (Hons)
I love the split between my two subjects. Taking sociology and psychology means I get to study society and individuals from two separate perspectives, which has really stretched my understanding and kept me engaged. The two subjects also recruit two different teaching techniques: psychology is much more factual, and theory based, whereas sociology takes on more of a discussion approach. This split keeps me more engaged mentally and allows me to view situations and concepts from two separate standpoints.
