About this course
Studying Sociology helps you make sense of how society works - and why it doesn’t work in the same way for everyone. On this course, you will explore different ways of understanding some of the most pressing global issues of our time. How does migration and racism shape the lives of individuals, communities and countries?
How does poverty and inequality affect global trends in health and wellbeing? How are societies unevenly affected by the climate crisis and respond to environmental challenges?
