"60% of global leaders have undergraduate degrees in social science fields, including 61% of politicians" — Campaign for Social Science

We know that having a social and policy science-based degree can prepare you for a range of exciting and rewarding careers.

During our upcoming webinar, you’ll be able to speak to some of our alumni and hear about their experiences and aspirations, as well as how studying helped them on their journey.

Our social and policy sciences alumni will be able to tell you about:

• the jobs they do
• their careers so far and their future ambitions

You’ll also be able to ask them your questions and get their advice before you take your exciting next steps.
