Course summary

Sociology at Glasgow is defined by our shared commitment to rigorous, innovative and useful research. We have particular strengths in the following areas. Most members of staff work between and across these areas, and in conjunction with colleagues across the discipline and beyond: work on national and global aspects of crime, criminal justice and punishment. work on racism and anti-racism, disabilities, health and illness, gender and sexualities, work and the interrelationships between these issues. work on various kinds of ‘risky’ behaviour, including gambling and drug use. Theoretical and Cultural Research: work aimed at the development of new theoretical insight, as well as historical and comparative cultural research, around questions of kinships, families and intimacy, and critical media research. Our programmes are based on thorough training in research methods and we encourage you to take part in numerous exciting seminars, conferences and events. We offer modern library, IT services and a wide-range of support services. You will be living in one of Europe’s most exciting cities which has a vibrant cultural and social life.
