Sociology (MA)

Warwick’s MA in Sociology provides an opportunity for students to engage with a broad range of social issues in the global north and global south, centring around questions of power and inequality, and relations between subjectivity and social structures. By bringing together social, cultural, political and economic dimensions of social life, the course equips students with tools to better understand key events of our time.

A core aspect of the programme entails thinking through the relationship between theory and praxis and multiple theoretical approaches to Sociology. Over the course of the programme, you will gain a thorough understanding of theories and methodologies that explore the social world. You will also have the opportunity to tailor your programme to your own specific interests through our wide range of options.
