DescriptionSociology examines how our actions are shaped by our social environment. It explores the values, beliefs and ideas that people hold, the lives we live and choices we make. Sociology will disturb your taken-for-granted view of the world, making even the mundane things in everyday life seem extraordinary. If you are inquisitive, seek challenges, take pleasure in discovery, desire to see the world afresh, and don’t want to simply believe that things can only be the way you’ve been told they are, then a sociology degree is for you.



You’ll study the organisation of societies, how people become united and divided in different cultural and social arrangements, and how people view their identities and understand their place in the world. Key topics across the sociology degree include violence and conflict, community and family life, society and the environment, technologies and security, and gender and sexuality. As you study sociology, you’ll develop the transferable skills that are sought after by employers, including research and problem-solving skills, and a range of communication skills.
