Middlesex University's sociology BA teaches students essential hands-on skills while they develop the research ability and theoretical knowledge that allows them to understand the effects of social issues on society. 

Students will have the freedom to choose their modules and focus of study in their second and third year meaning they can tailor their degree to their individual interests and future career goals. The programme itself has a strong focus on race and "decentering" the discipline of sociology, making it ever more relevant in today's world and making intersectionality a central feature of the students study and practice. Students will also have the opportunity to take on a work placement or study abroad.

Students have the option to extend their course by a year to spend their third year building their employability skills as part of a paid work placement at a community organization or NGO. Middlesex' academic advisers will help students find their placement and give them the support they need to complete a winning application
