Course Overview

We run employability modules as part of our curriculum. The second year 'Sociology Placement' will prepare you for life after University - taking you through all stages of the employment process, from developing skills to applying for roles.

You will regularly discuss career preferences with your tutors at each level of study, building up a profile of your optimum career pathways. You can use your work experience as a focus for your third-year research project, providing a more reflexive approach to thinking about future careers.
