Description:

As a Sociology student at Lincoln, you are introduced to the study of human social behaviour, giving you the opportunity to improve your understanding of how societies are organized, how social identities are constructed, and the issues facing some of society's most marginalized people. On this course, students are encouraged to develop an understanding of the fabric of different societies, groups, and political structures. Students have the opportunity to learn about the changing nature and role of the family unit, how technological advances have transformed the way we interact, and what subcultures can teach us about mainstream society.

This program is not only designed to develop a student’s sociological knowledge, but aims to equip students with a set of transferable skills relevant to further academic study and to the workplace. Underpinning many of the other social sciences, Sociology offers insight into the diverse and different social groups and structures that make up contemporary societies. Aiming to be at the forefront of contemporary social debates, this course seeks to analyze the different social constructions of everyday social life.
