Studying with us means engaging with a dynamic 21st-century subject and exploring current social issues and debates, using the latest research methods.<br/><br/>Investigating the nature of societal structures and their impact on peoples everyday lives and interactions is central to the course.

The course makes full use of the amazing resources our central London location provides, from the museums on our doorstep to street-art field trips and the diverse cultures and subcultures that will inform and inspire your own research.<br/><br/>Drawing on cutting-edge research, this is a course that will put you at the forefront of contemporary sociological thinking and practice.
