Course summary

Sociology is a well-established discipline, as relevant to the study of 21st-century societies as it is to the sweeping changes of the Industrial Revolution. Sociologists are concerned with society's structures, forms of action, and cultural practices and they are uniquely placed to understand the changes of social life. This course provides the academic and professional support you need to develop your own sociological imagination. You will be joining a vibrant academic community. Bristol is home to prominent sociologists focused on consumption, culture, digital society, environment, ethnicity and race, gender, migration, modern slavery, multiculturalism, popular music, social theory and more. We provide regular workshops, guest speakers, reading groups and social events, as well as support for the student societies associated with this course. Skills development is woven throughout your programme and you will graduate with valuable transferable skills that ensure you are well placed to pursue your career goals.
