Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Sociology
Program Overview
Our approach to sociology engages you in a critical study of society. You will learn to make sense of what drives change in the social world and the possible directions this change may take.
The effect of new ideas, technologies, government programmes and social conflict on everyday life is explored through your study of a broad range of subjects that take in local, national and global social relationships. The aim is to give you a comprehensive grasp of the sociological imagination and the real world issues it speaks to.
The core modules in year one provide you with a firm foundation for future study. How can sociology help us address social change and divisions? Where can our sociological imagination best apply itself? In year two, you will deepen your understanding of social theory and research methods and broaden your knowledge of society through a range of options. By year three, you will have the choice to study specialist subjects in depth and develop your independent learning.
You may opt for a dissertation and pursue a topic of your choice. Alternatively, you can gain valuable employability skills by opting for our social policy project, combining work experience with your studies and carrying out a piece of research commissioned by a local agency.
Our programmes are based on cutting-edge research and are ideal preparation for careers or further study where clear, creative thinking is valued. From the historical foundations of crime and punishment to the implications of digitisation in social, political, economic and cultural life.
