This module aims to provide students with a broad overview of how the range of methods, designs and approaches used in social research may contribute to policy. It also aims to encourage a critical appreciation of the opportunities, benefits and challenges of using research evidence to inform and influence social policy and professional practice. Illustrative examples drawn from different policy contexts are used throughout the module to support the theoretical material. Although much of the material refers to the UK policy context, the focus of the module is international and students attend with an interest in a range of social policy sectors and disciplines.
