Are you interested in society and change globally and locally?

The Society and Change studies are for you if you are interested in how to promote global equality and social justice, or how knowledge of other societies and cultures helps us look different.

In these studies, you will become acquainted with the intertwining of economic, political and cultural change processes and their manifestation in people's daily lives at different times. You will learn about the development of international political and economic dependencies and contradictions and how they are regulated. You will learn what is development, practiced to look at how modern societies are constructed and see how history is present in modern times.
