Programme overview
This degree provides an opportunity to develop your own research expertise by studying a sociological issue in an interdisciplinary School. You will study with internationally renowned sociologists in a dynamic and supportive research environment. They are involved in funded research, research centres and groups looking at everything from Digital Economies & Futures, Food Security, and Integration, to Music Festivals, Migration, Modern Slavery and Social Inequalities. Our staff also have particular expertise across a range of cultural and social theory and champion diverse research methodologies.
We are committed to rigorous conceptual and empirical research that is politically and socially relevant and problem-orientated. We aim to advance theory, knowledge and methods at the cutting edge of sociology. Our aim is not just to monitor the social world but to contribute to a better understanding and to ways that might improve it.
You will join an international community of students working in a range of sociological areas. You will be assigned two PhD supervisors whose current active research interests and expertise are relevant to your chosen research area.
Our research activity is guided by focusing on key themes:
critical security
ethnicity, migration and citizenship
Europe and Europeanisation
gender
political and social inequalities
social, cultural and political theory
south and east Asia
All researchers across the school identify with one or more of the themes. This enables collective identification over themes within the school and aims to generate further collaboration and interdisciplinarity in our research activities. In addition, the themes provide a basis for internal and external recognition of the main questions and topics that our research addresses.
