Through a curriculum that emphasises a plurality of perspectives and rigorous methodological training, you will explore diverse sociological approaches to social change, cultural norms, institutions, and the complexities of the modern world. Topics that may be covered include race and gender dynamics, the climate crisis, wealth and income distribution, mental health and wellbeing, immigration, data-empowered societies and the impact of AI, social inequalities and injustices, and LGBTQ+ rights.
