About Sociology, MA - at University of Sheffield

Immerse yourself in established and emergent ideas in sociology and delve into debates about the most pressing sociological challenges in the social world.

The MA in Sociology is driven by the research of academics on the course team, with a mix of core and optional modules designed exclusively for masters students. In your core modules, you'll pursue debates in current sociology, engage with advanced social and sociological theory, and explore advanced qualitative and/or quantitative research methods.

You'll also study areas of sociological research that interest you through a range of optional modules. These are likely to include: the sociologies of digital worlds; intimacies and everyday life; genders and sexualities; and refugees and asylum seekers.
