Sociology

The BA Sociology is ideally suited to those with an inquisitive mind in tumultuous times. We examine society and our experience of it as individuals, working professionals, families, communities and organisations. Sociology encourages critical thinking and could inspire you to look at the world in different ways, questioning conventional wisdom and social structures.

You’ll have opportunities to analyse the pressing issues of modern day society, not just in Britain, but throughout the world, including: globalisation, development, modernity, postmodernity, race, inequality and social exclusion, traditional and new media, work-life balance, sex, sexuality, families, intimacy and gender relations.
