Course summary

Humans are social animals. Our norms, values, lifestyles and wellbeing are completely tied to the welfare of others. On this BA (Hons) Sociology degree you’ll learn how to critically analyse current social issues. And explore how history has influenced the way we live our lives today. You’ll discover the social world and build your understanding of our place in the global environment. Investigate differing sociological viewpoints. Do we live in an ordered society? Or is society unequal and conflict-ridden? You’ll examine issues associated with these questions including equality, rights, liberty, social justice and diversity. You’ll study a range of topics. These could include feminist, gay and disability rights. Or movements such as ‘Black Lives Matter’ and transgender activism. In years 2 and 3, you’ll have greater choice to shape your study with optional modules. Our approach to teaching sociology is innovative and creative. Throughout your BA (Hons) Sociology degree you’ll take part in field trips. We’ll make sure you develop research skills to expand your sociological imagination. You’ll also master critical skills and have the option to undertake a work placement. So when you graduate you’ll be career-ready.
