Course summary

How does education shape society, and how do social issues impact learning? Our Education and Sociology degree explores the relationship between both disciplines, equipping you with the knowledge and transferable skills to tackle real-world challenges and pursue a meaningful career across a range of sectors.

Discover how education drives social and political change by examining the impact of educational policies on our system, and how we can learn from history to tackle some of today’s challenges. You'll examine social divisions and inequalities across cultures, developing practical research skills in quantitative surveys, qualitative interviews, and ethnographic studies to understand how social scientists use data in real-world contexts.

Apply your sociological imagination to make sense of today's rapidly changing world. This might mean rethinking how classical theories apply to digital societies, designing classroom interventions to support children from marginalised communities, or exploring how education can challenge social inequalities.

Optional modules allow you to tailor your degree to your interests, with themes including social order and deviance, social design, critical issues in higher education, and ideas of home and belonging.

Through real-world projects, work placements, community-based learning, and study abroad opportunities, you'll gain critical thinking, communication, and research skills. You will graduate with in-demand skills and expertise, ready to apply your creativity and analytical thinking across a range of careers – from education and social policy to community work and beyond.
