The programme responds to radical changes in approaches to equalities and human rights in Scotland, the UK and beyond. Taught by a team of specialists from a range of areas of inequality, including gender, racism, sexuality, disability and faith, the programme looks at what equality and human rights mean and what practical steps can be taken to achieve them. You will examine the major causes of inequality today and how the idea that certain groups are less equal than others emerged. You will also study what sustains that idea and how these groups are interrelated. If you are interested in going on to study for a PhD, there is a closely-related MRes in Equality and Human Rights which combines a grounding in the subject with advanced research training.

What were the best things about your programme of study?
The variety of subjects (disability, racism, religion, gender, sexualities etc.), the interdisciplinary aspects of the course, within my masters I took courses ranging across sociology, anthropology and criminology; the active engagement in the areas of justice and human rights across the School and University made it very easy to find support to carry out my research.
