This course will allow you to explore how societies and humans function objectively. Throughout the course, you will gain insight into human behaviour, relationships, culture, institutions and social issues. You will learn to perceive the world differently and develop skills that will be transferable to the private, public and voluntary sectors.

You will gain transferable skills in critical thinking, problem-solving and presentations, that are essential to progression in education. This Level 6 course (including passing Higher Sociology with a B grade) will allow you to progress to HNC Social Science and have the option to progress to university if this route is recommended by the academic team.
