BA (Hons) Sociology

Your degree will give you in-depth knowledge and understanding of fundamental areas of sociology. You will apply theoretical and methodological knowledge to practical problems and you will have the opportunity to discover and explore new areas and issues that interest and excite you. Your degree will give you a comprehensive understanding of the public value of sociology and how it helps us understand real-world issues that impact us all.

We know that professional experience is crucial to your success, so you’ll complete professional work or volunteering placements as part of your degree. We’ll match you with one of our employer partners, or support you in finding your own opportunities.

Through these placements, and the assessments on your course, you will develop valuable skills that employers frequently praise our sociology graduates for, such as critical thinking and an eye for detail.
