Arts & Social Sciences

Gabby Tjiroze
Art appreciation course created for individuals without any artistic background. Art introduces you to various art movements, cultural influences, artistic genres, artists, and their artwork. The main emphasis of the art is to teach you hands-on studio arts techniques as you conduct personal research and explore your own creativity.

While utilizing historical and contemporary art concepts, arts guide you through different time periods. Examining and discussing artwork is a crucial part which encourages you to express your opinions about art in an intelligent and articulate manner.

Studying the relationship between art and social work is not simply a matter of analysing the utilitarian dimension of artistic practice, or the benefits of such activities for service users; it requires us to deconstruct the dynamic that links these two social spaces. What does art bring to social work and, conversely, what can social work bring to art? All too often reflections on utility are uni-directional, focusing exclusively on the contribution of art to social work or vice versa.

If you passionate about working with others and have a drive to make a difference to people’s lives then Art and Social Services is definitely for you.

Social science is a major category of academic disciplines, concerned with society and the relationships among individuals within a society. Social science as a whole has many branches, each of which is considered a social science.
