Sociology provides a framework for the study of human behaviour, examining how societies are organised, how social identities are constructed, and the issues facing some of society's most marginalised people. On Lincoln's BA (Hons) Sociology degree, students are encouraged to examine the fabric of different societies, groups, and political structures. This includes studying the changing nature and role of the family unit, how technological advances have transformed the way we interact, and what subcultures can teach us about mainstream society. The curriculum draws on the expertise of staff from across Lincoln's School of Social and Political Sciences, whose research actively informs contemporary academic and public policy debates.
