Join our BSc (Hons) Sociology with Foundation programme and benefit from a foundation year specially designed to support you in developing all the essential skills for success in higher education. The study of human behaviour, relationships and interactions creates a lens through which to better see the world. At Plymouth, you’ll hold that lens to the world around you so you can play a positive role in it. Here we look inwardly at our surroundings as much as we look beyond them and you’ll spend four weeks immersed on the streets of the city you’re living in, putting Plymouth society under the microscope. Understand the city’s different communities by taking tours of its varied neighbourhoods. See how change is made by working with local support groups and projects like Landworks, which helps rehabilitate offenders and gain the skills to better navigate and tackle social challenges. Support live research projects – from taking oral histories from people in the nearby Maka Peninsula to creating accessible materials to help young people talk about death for Derriford Hospital. Explore how topics such as class, ethnicity, food, gender, health, media and poverty shape our lives, supported by a nationally renowned academic team who will get to know you personally. From the second year, you can choose to add in modules from across the School of Society & Culture’s 17 disciplines, exploring the intersection between deprivation and crime with a module on Criminology, better understanding the role of music in society with a focus on community music, or applying a political lens to your studies.

Year 0 In this year, you’ll experience a supportive environment to assist in the transition to successful study in higher education. You will learn about academic writing, critical thinking skills and begin to develop your research skills, as well as develop your knowledge and understanding through an introduction to key aspects of sociology and other relevant areas of law and social science.
