Honours Programme Social Sciences
Learn how you can apply your skills to competently tackle social issues. For instance by bringing creativity into education, and by stimulating people to move more in their daily lives. You will learn about different perspectives within the social sciences from guest speakers spanning communication sciences, sociology, artificial intelligence, educational sciences, psychology and cultural anthropology. You will get to know how citizens and professionals approach a societal topic like heat stress in our city of Nijmegen. You will discuss with your fellow honours students in small groups and you get to develop your personal skills. Does this sound like music to your ears? Then the Honours Programme Social Sciences is for you.
