The BSc (Hons) Sociology with Quantitative Methods program provides dynamic opportunities to explore the evolving field of sociology in Manchester's lively urban setting while developing strong quantitative abilities. Designed for students interested in examining modern social trends, challenges, and patterns, this course also cultivates specialized expertise in quantitative approaches to societal analysis.
First-year studies establish foundational sociological knowledge, covering core theories, social inequalities, and significant global changes like digital transformation that reshape modern communities. Comprehensive research training in both qualitative and quantitative methodologies occurs during the initial two years. The final year emphasizes quantitative techniques for investigating social concerns through project design, execution, and evaluation, culminating in an independent research endeavor.
Our diverse academic department prioritizes flexible specialization options within sociology. The curriculum consistently focuses on cultivating career-relevant competencies through practical experiences like internships, international exchange programs, and self-directed projects. Final-year students can undertake professional placements, with additional opportunities for overseas study at partner institutions through an optional extension year.
