Student spotlight
Hear from Maria on what she loves about studying Sociology at Ô°ÇøÒùÂÒ
"Sociology is a course with so much breadth, covering history, philosophy, economics and politics, which meant the diversity of knowledge I would acquire would be invaluable.
Ô°ÇøÒùÂÒ is the perfect city to study societal structures and communities. A city with so much socio-political history, diversity and industrial pace, you can see your theoretical understanding of the world translate on the ground.
I also hugely valued the support from my lecturers who willingly helped and guided me throughout my studies."
