BA Politics and Sociology

If you want to …

  • debate what democracy and freedom mean
  • explore social values
  • investigate the impact of social divisions
  • and examine the great ideological revolutions of modern times

...then BA Politics and Sociology could be the right course for you.

BA Politics and Sociology combines the study of sociology at the School of Sociology and Social Policy with the study of politics at the School of Politics and International Studies.

The course offers you the opportunity to engage with the complexity of society, and learn about the social, cultural, economic and political processes that shape human experience. You will explore the organisation and structure of society, and examine the changing nature of human action.

You will also study the main political theories that structure our political systems, the wider social forces that shape political life, and gain a firm grounding in the institutions and practices of modern political systems.

You will examine British politics, and analyse international issues. You can explore the political systems of other countries, and track the evolution of global politics from the rise of the modern state to the present day.
