Course Overview

In a fast-changing world, this degree offers you the chance to explore some of the major forces reshaping social life. You’ll be introduced to distinctively sociological ways of understanding the world and, in the process, will be challenged to think more deeply about contemporary social problems and sociological constructs. You’ll explore the most innovative social theory and the most influential traditions of social analysis. You'll gain practical skills in social research and the ability to plan and conduct an independent sociological project. Upon graduation, you’ll not only have a well-developed understanding of what sociology is and the nature of society’s groups, cultures, and organizations but will be in a position to make a positive difference in society.

  • Explore lively, topical, and sometimes controversial issues affecting societies at local and global levels.

  • Get to grips with key sociological questions that deal with social identities, such as class, gender, race, and sexuality.

  • Use social theory to understand changes in work, culture, life, and control.

  • Learn to critically evaluate evidence understand sociological problems better and think like a sociologist.

  • Explore a sociological topic of your interest in depth in the final year.
