BA Sociology
If you are interested in the nature of 'society'...
- And you want to explore social values
- Or investigate the impact of social divisions
- Or examine how social structures shape your life and other people's lives
- And want a course that provides a great starting-point for a career or further postgraduate study
- And have just finished your A-levels or want to return to education after a break
... then Sociology at Leeds is the programme for you.
Sociology explores the organisation and structure of society, and examines the changing nature of human action.
If you choose to study sociology, you will quickly engage with the complexity of society, and learn about the social, cultural, economic and political processes that shape human experience.
Studying sociology enables you to question 'common-sense' assumptions about the social world and challenge ideas about what constitutes 'natural' behaviour.
And, at Leeds, you have the ability to focus on your own sociological interests through our extensive selection of optional modules in Year One, Two and Three.
Our department offers you the opportunity to study crime, violence, subculture, sexuality, ethnicity, protest and social control, alongside globalisation, welfare reform, environmentalism and migration.
