MPhil / PhD社会工作与社会政策-公民与社区

公民身份与社区之间的关系是当今许多最重要的社会和政治辩论的核心。通过探讨公民身份的性质和定义，各种形式的公民权利的发展，公民身份与社会包容和排斥之间的关系以及公民对社区发展的贡献，我们为这些辩论做出了贡献。社区的重要性体现在我们对活动遗产以及明智而可持续的社区建设的研究中。您可以在一年的过程中学习MPhil，也可以在三年的过程中学习博士学位。您可以在我们任何可用的研究领域中进行研究：儿童与年轻人和家庭，健康与福利，刑事与社会正义，公民身份和社区。
Our approach encompasses a wide range of issues, including questions relating to social rights and welfare entitlements, to the concept of health citizenship, migration and belonging, and civic participation. Our work in the area of communities explores the links between communities and social welfare, as well as the community legacies of major sporting events. We also explore the challenges associated with the ‘idea' of community in future cities.<br><br>All of our work is motivated by a desire to better understand the causes and consequences of social divisions and their impact on individual and social welfare. We approach these issues from both historical and contemporary perspectives, using a range of methodological approaches. Our ultimate aim is to contribute to the development of the sorts of social policies and activities that help to promote cohesion and inclusion, health and wellbeing, engagement and participation in our cities and communities.
