What the college says

Sociology is the study of social life, social change, and the social causes and consequences of human behaviour. Sociologists investigate the structure of groups, organisations, and societies, and how people interact within these contexts. We consider what factors determine this behaviour and consider the ideas of norms and values, socialisation, and conformity and deviance in shaping who we are. Sociology works well combined with psychology, English, health and social care, economics, geography, history, or any other essay-based subjects.
