Course Overview
Studying Sociology at BGU in Lincoln means you won’t ‘just’ be looking at sociological theory – you’ll be exploring how approaches help demystify phenomena like terrorism, nationalism, sexism, surveillance, globalization, and multiculturalism. Similarly, when you study research methods, you won’t ‘just’ be studying research methods – you’ll be looking at how those methods are used in the real world by marketing agencies, governments, local councils, advertising agencies, PR companies, polling companies, and many others.
This undergraduate course showcases sociology’s relevance beyond the confines of academia. Studying a Sociology degree at BGU will provide you with state of the art understanding of critical classical and contemporary social, cultural, and sociology theories and rigorous training in social research methods that employers demand. Completing this course will equip us with a wide range of transferable skills that work successfully in various public, private, and third-sector settings.
At BGU, our commitment to small-group teaching and one-to-one supervision means you’ll never be an anonymous face in a large lecture theatre. Throughout your degree, you’ll benefit immeasurably from such direct access to academics. We believe that students learn best when they’re being taught by staff who are actively engaged in high-quality research. That’s why our team has drawn upon their own extensive research experiences to create this degree program.
