Sociology MA

Sociology examines how individual choices are affected by wider social forces and how they can be understood by placing them in their social context. You will also learn to compare different national contexts and understand contemporary social issues from a global perspective. Staff at the University of Edinburgh carry out research on a diversity of topics and offer teaching related to their research. If you choose to study with us you will be exposed to a range of topics, ideas and approaches to Sociology.
