Is sociology boring?

i guess it depends on how you look at it. i find it really interesting, but i do know some people who hate it. if you like discussions and debates you'll probably like it because of all the different theories and arguments that you'll learn. it's a good option for people who don't like 'sciency' subjects because it can actually be classed as a science, but it doesn't seem like it- it's much easier. :smile:

As with any subject, it is not for everyone. I did A level Sociology and a degree in it and I had a brilliant time. What I would say is that people who do it at degree level often have a variety of different career goals so there can be divisions at times. There was a big difference between learners who wanted to go into social work, teaching, and local government. If anyone wants to do a social sciences degree like Sociology or Psychology, I would highly recommend doing a fourth year after it to specialise in a particular area. I felt like that fourth year made me a lot more employable. There are also lots of companies looking for social science graduates for their graduate programs too (not my cup of tea, but I know a lot of people who earn big bucks compared to me - I've been teaching for 10 years)

Arden do some great, flexible social science courses https://arden.ac.uk/about-us/faculties/faculty-of-social-science
