Law and Sociology with Integrated International Foundation Programme Bachelor of Arts (with Honours) - BA (Hons)

This integrated four-year route combines Year 0 of the International Foundation Programme with Warwick's degree in Law and Sociology. The International Foundation Programme provides a strong foundation in the key ideas, theories, and methods used to understand how societies function and change. You will develop the analytical, research, and communication skills needed to study social issues critically and engage with real-world challenges from multiple perspectives.

Throughout the course, you will explore how social, political, and cultural forces shape our world, examining topics such as power, justice, identity, and cultural representations. You will also learn to evaluate evidence, interpret data, and present well-structured academic arguments. Alongside this, you will strengthen your ability to collaborate, debate, and think independently, which are skills essential for success in higher education and beyond. By the end of this first year, students will have developed the academic foundations and be well prepared to progress Year 1 of BA Law and Sociology.

The Law and Sociology (BA) joint degree aims to develop your understanding of technical and doctrinal aspects of the law, sociological theory and research, and social problems, institutions and practices.
