The BSc (Hons) in Sociology with Foundation Year at the University of Roehampton London offers you a comprehensive exploration of society, its structures, and the forces that shape human behaviour. This undergraduate degree is ideal for aspiring social scientists who are curious about contemporary issues such as crime, justice, identity, and social change. You will develop a critical understanding of how social institutions operate and gain the analytical tools to question everyday assumptions, preparing you to engage meaningfully with complex social phenomena and contribute to societal understanding.
This full-time, four-year programme, studied on campus, begins with a foundational year designed to build your academic skills and introduce you to key social science concepts before progressing to core sociological modules. You will engage with diverse areas including sociological research methods, popular culture, and global sociology, with opportunities to explore specialisms like criminology, gender studies, or digital society. Through critical analysis and potentially a workplace placement, you will graduate with a strong theoretical grounding and practical insights, ready for careers in research, policy, social work, or further postgraduate study.
