BSc (Hons) Sociology is aimed at students interested in how socialisation has enabled human beings to become the complex and intelligent species we are today. Whether it is poverty or inequality, crime or corruption, this course intends to both identify and understand how to make the world a better place.
The first year introduces you to the essential principles of sociology: key sociological concepts and theories, social divisions and problems, and major transformations – such as globalisation or digital culture – which are altering the fabric of contemporary society. You will receive training in a wide range of research methods during the first two years, to become equipped to undertake your own independent research project in your final year.
Our large, multi-disciplinary department believes in offering extensive optionality to study specific areas of sociology in-depth. Throughout the degree, there is an emphasis on developing skills and experiences that are relevant to professional careers, including work experience, study-abroad schemes, and independent project work.
In your final year of study, you will have the opportunity remain on BSc (Hons) Sociology or to specialise by choosing a pathway and graduating with an exit award in one of these areas:
