Course summary
We live in unprecedented eventful times of intense, rapid and constant social transformation – from rising economic inequality/poverty, the climate crises, threats to liberal democracy, the impact of social media, the recognition of LGTBQ, BLM and disability groups, to name just a few – creating an increasingly complex world of both progress and peril that sociologists are best equipped to address. So, if you are excited by contemporary questions and convincing explanations about the world around you, then studying a BA Sociology degree is for you.The University of Northampton’s Sociology team has the necessary high quality teaching and research experience to provide you with the sociological knowledge, skill and confidence to succeed in higher education. You will have the opportunity to study a diverse range of interdisciplinary topics, from identity/self, inequality/injustice, education, media/culture, crime/deviance, love/body, work/volunteering, health/wellbeing, utopianism/future, environment, and death – and actively engage with these pressing real-world contemporary issues head on. Teaching is made up of active blended learning in and around the classroom via small group work with a diverse student body and individualised assessment types, and through research/reflection out in the field on placements and our highly subsidised international field trip.
