GCE AS Level in Sociology

UPDATED 20151105 10:21:06

Sociology is a subject which lends itself to healthy debate and discussion and students are encouraged to use their own life experiences as a starting point to understanding our own society and the effects of others upon us. You will study topics such as: Families and Households, Education and Sociological Methods, Beliefs in Society and Crime and Deviance. Lectures involve students actively participating in the learning process in order to gain understanding and insight into contemporary issues. The subject content has been arranged so that candidates must study a core of theory and methods plus a selection of substantive topics and may include areas such as (at AS level): Families and Households; Education and Sociological Methods. It is an intensive course and students must recognise that a lot of reading and essay writing needs to be done at home in preparation for 2 predominantly essay-based exams. Each exam involves students presenting and assessing a range of sociological theories. At AS the exams are one and two hours in length.
