Study Abroad with UCD Social Sciences

University College Dublin’s Social Sciences Study Abroad programme provides an exciting opportunity for visiting students to expand their academic and cultural horizons. Our Social Sciences programme is ever-evolving and provides students with a strong understanding of contemporary world issues.

Why do people behave the way they do? How do social, cultural, political and economic forces shape our lives and the world in which we live?

If these types of questions about society and social relationships spark your interest, prepare to be challenged and fascinated by studying abroad with UCD Social Sciences. You will examine the nature of our society and the issues confronting humanity, including climate change, crime and violence, social and economic inequality, gender justice, sustainable cities, human development, economic growth and big data.

Studying Social Sciences at UCD provides students with the academic understanding necessary for a wide range of careers across areas such as business, politics, the not-for-profit sector, and economics. Your ability to research and critically analyse information will place you in a strong position when starting out on your career.
