About this course

Sociology asks fundamental questions about the social world: why inequality persists, how power operates through institutions and culture, what drives discrimination and exclusion, and how societies change over time. As the current description of this programme at the London School of Economics notes, these are among the biggest questions of our time, from the drivers of poverty and racial prejudice to the conditions required for more inclusive societies. Sociology approaches them not through intuition or ideology but through systematic inquiry, developing the tools to analyse social life rigorously and to evaluate evidence about the causes and consequences of social arrangements. At LSE, one of the world's leading social science institutions, the BSc Sociology programme gives you access to an exceptional community of researchers and a discipline that takes its questions seriously.
