About Sociology, BA (Hons) - at Abertay University

Sociology involves thinking critically about the world around you to develop an understanding of how people engage and interact in groups, institutions and societies. This thought-provoking degree covers everything from death and religious belief to social media use and digital surveillance.

This Sociology degree is designed to give you an understanding of how individuals shape and are shaped by the social contexts they inhabit. It's a challenging but rewarding programme designed to equip you with the aptitudes and capabilities that public and private sector employers demand, including:

  • How to analyse complex issues
  • How to engage in critical thinking
  • How to communicate to a variety of audiences
