Education Studies equips you with a depth of understanding about education’s role in a diverse society, both within and beyond the UK.

Sociology studies human social life, groups and societies. A wide-ranging subject, it analyses social relationships and social institutions, and the ways in which they shape people’s lives. Sociologists focus on many topics, ranging from global social processes to changing identities and personal relationships.
