Social Sciences Diploma of Higher Education (SCQF level 8)

The Diploma of Higher Education in Social Sciences is offered by City of Glasgow College, in association with the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow.It is equivalent to the first two years of an Honours Degree at the University of Strathclyde and therefore allows you to apply to there for direct entry to the third year of the BA Politics and/or History Degree. In the first year you will study History, Politics, Economics and Sociology and in the second year Politics and History only. Please note that there is no psychology in this degree. If you leave after one year – or don’t meet the requirements for the Diploma after two years – you may be awarded a Certificate of Higher Education in Social Sciences.
