Referencing style- Sociology

Hi there,

I am beginning a postgraduate course in York's sociology department this autumn and I was just wondering what referencing style the department uses?

At my current university we use Harvard style (Author, date within the text) and I wondering (and hoping) whether the sociology department at York uses the same style?

I have searched online for the referencing system that York uses but its such an obscure thing to want to know, I thought it would be best to ask current students.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello:

I will also be doing my postgraduate work in Sociology (actually half in sociology and half in Women's Studies). Both use the Harvard style as well.

Hope to see you!

That is a real relief, thank you!

I've never done footnote/endnote referencing and didn't particularly want to learn!!

Thanks again
