BSc (Hons) Sociology

... United Kingdom
... University of Salford

Course Overview

Sociologists have for decades been providing answers to difficult government and policy questions, informing industry and challenging inequalities.

Sociology is concerned with understanding social life and our place within it. On this course, you will study human connections and relationships, and how these connections, as well as social structures, such as social class, race and gender, are linked to the way we behave. You will tackle difficult questions around issues such as poverty, sexism, austerity, immigration, privacy and social unrest, and gain insights into our cultural and everyday lives.

Our world today faces multiple crises, each of which impact on society in ways that require astute analysis. From the cost of living crisis in the UK to the global environmental crisis and international conflict, people around the world are dealing with rapid changes to the communities they live in, with many becoming unaffordable or even uninhabitable. At the same time, new digital technologies mean people around the world are more informed and connected than ever before and cultural changes mean many more people are expressing identities that were at one time suppressed or even criminalised. As a Sociology student, you will explore these historical changes and contemporary events to understand what kind of impact they can have on society, how societies deal with them and how they can be the catalysts for major societal change.

You will:

  • Benefit from our strong links with local government, social care providers, prisons, courts, charities, community development organisations and youth organisations

  • Be equipped with the knowledge and skills to succeed in a diverse range of professions

  • Gain insight into key theories and approaches to understanding the social world, and transferable skills in areas such as research, information communication technology, critical thinking and advanced problem-solving

  • Be taught by internationally recognised research active staff who ensure that module content aligns with current social science happenings, controversies and debates

  • Have the opportunity to undertake a work placement module to gain first-hand experience

  • Have the opportunity to study historical and contemporary issues, ranging from national to global
