About masters in sociology
Sociology is a social science, part of the group of subjects that study human behaviour and society to try and understand the world beyond individual experiences. Sociology is primarily concerned with how people, their systems of living, and society as a whole work – examining these aspects at both the individual and the structural level.
It is a research-based discipline, and undertaking a masters in this subject gives a lot of scope to the student to learning to their specific area of interest, for example class, religion or social mobility.
When studying a masters in sociology, students will need to think critically about aspects of society and why people behave and respond to events and to each other in the way that they do.
As part of their studies, sociology students are likely to research back through history to see if any events have led to the current trends in society. They may also consider various political influences within historical contexts to help with their understanding of society and the world.
Sociology students will hone their research and reflection skills, plus they will develop critical writing skills while comparing and contrasting case studies to explore how key events have shaped society.
