Interdisciplinaire sociale wetenschap

You will learn to observe and examine contemporary Youth issues by combining different social scientific disciplines (psychology, pedagogy, sociology, anthropology) in an interdisciplinary approach.
Do you want to contribute to knowledge regarding youth issues, improve the quality of youth welfare, and develop ways to prevent or solve problems associated with adolescence and young adulthood? The Master's programme Youth Studies will enable you to look beyond the limits of single academic disciplines in approaching these problems. By integrating knowledge from different disciplines you will be able to advance fundamental understanding of youth issues and to address youth problems whose solutions are beyond the scope of a single discipline or area of research.

Study social policy and interventions in the domain of health and wellbeing from an interdisciplinary perspective, in particular as related to work, care and participation.
Do you ever wonder why mothers are more likely than fathers to work part-time and care for their children? Or why some countries oblige unemployment benefit recipients to follow strict activation requirements while others do not?
Maybe you've thought about how societies are changing as a result of increasing cultural diversity and social inequality? If you are interested in studying such issues, this one-year Master's programme is for you.
