Our PhD programme is characterised by a strong focus on research training leading to theoretically-informed research that advances academic and policy debates. Our work in this area shares an interdisciplinary focus on the impact of inequalities on people’s everyday lives. Colleagues involved in this area come from a wide variety of disciplinary backgrounds, including social work, public policy, social psychology, and sociology. Our work ranges from evaluation of social care for young people, to the conceptualisation, measurement and analysis of poverty, critical analysis of equal opportunities policy and work on the dynamic nature of health and wellbeing, social care and social justice.
