Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Sociology
Program Overview
Sociology is flourishing at University of Plymouth. Our programme ranks among the best in the country. We use an innovative, ‘hands-on’ approach to teaching by encouraging students to apply sociological questions to the real world. Most importantly, our lecturers truly care about the progress of their students.
In your first year, you’ll start investigating how and why societies change, looking into how individuals and society connect. Working in small tutorial groups, you’ll explore real-world research through topics such as health, poverty, housing, gender, race, family, education, religion, employment, global development and environmental sustainability. Throughout the year, you’ll learn what it is to be a sociologist and how to use evidence to better understand the social world.
