Learning outcomes

The aim of the course is to introduce students to the issues of social policy in relation to health and social work. Current topics of national social policy are treated in relation to the theoretical paradigms of social policy as a scientific discipline, also in relation to other social sciences (especially sociology, social psychology and social work) and in the context of European social policy.
Students are familiar with the basic terminology of social policy and are able to apply the acquired knowledge in the work of a health and social worker.
