Course Content

Throughout this fascinating Sociology course, you’ll explore the reasons people commit crime and society’s reaction, the influence of the media on our behaviour and the way we see other groups of people in society, reasons for differences in educational achievement, experiences of discrimination by different social groups, reasons individuals adopt different identities (such as gender), and the research methods sociologists use to study society. You can also look forward to studying why certain groups may commit crime, whether the media affects our behaviour, and why some groups succeed more in education.
