Description of course |
This course enables students to evaluate complex public administration
contexts in which voluntary and statutory organisations work towards the
ideal of providing holistic and joined up solutions to contemporary
social problems. Public participation and user involvement are at the
core of the course philosophy. Students develop autonomous, critical and
evaluative reflection of their practice, through the application of
knowledge and skills that will enable them to function effectively in
the changing political and social context. The course has recently been
fully reviewed in partnership with the Sussex-based 'Working Together'
project and the university’s award winning Community University
Partnership Programme (CUPP). |
