About BA Theology and Sociology
Our Joint Honours degree in Theology and Sociology allows you to focus on the place of religion in society, both in the present and in the past. This course is equally weighted towards each discipline and you will take units across both subjects.
You will acquire a solid foundation in several religious traditions and in sociology. There is particular emphasis on sociological theory and its application to real-world concerns, including issues of ethnicity, beliefs and multiculturalism.
The wide-ranging, flexible curriculum offers progressive intellectual challenges and consolidates your experience throughout.
