The Bachelor's degree programme in Social Sciences is a combination degree programme of political science and sociology. It imparts basic theoretical and empirical knowledge of politics and society, with a focus on Germany and Europe. Students learn, for example, what characterises a strong democracy, or why social inequality exists and how it affects all of our lives.
