BSc (Hons) Sociology (Black Studies)

... United Kingdom
... London South Bank University

Course Overview

Studying sociology at LSBU means learning to see the world though a different lens. You will be guided to dig deep into contemporary social questions by expert, experienced and enthusiastic academics doing cutting-edge research. You will join an academic community committed to social justice and dedicated to helping students fulfil their potential. Sociology at LSBU provides you with the opportunity to grapple with many current issues such as globalisation, gender, religion, sexuality, identity formation, nationalism and more.

The Black Studies pathway is designed to enable you to develop a deeper understanding of race and racism which, thanks to the activism of the #Black Lives Matter movement and its allies, is now back on the political agenda. In Year 2 you will explore the history of empire and analyse its social, political and economic legacies. This will provide a solid basis for understanding the power dynamics of racial inequalities in the present. In Year 3 you will explore the ways in which Black communities have responded to racial injustice. Theories relating to the social construction of ‘race’ will also be explored, enabling you to engage with confidence with issues of identity – notably how identities are formed, lived and expressed.
