Course Overview

The MA Sociology at Liverpool Hope University is a postgraduate programme designed for postgraduate students passionate about understanding society. Based in Liverpool, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure. This postgraduate programme in Sociology aims to redefine how we think about society in the context of capitalism and globalisation and the ways we can contribute to actively creating change. Our courses encourage the students to develop an ability to visualise new political realities while exploring the topics of social divisions and inequality, and their links to political economy. We aim to facilitate an understanding of intersections between class, gender, race, and disability in relation to the latest scholarly developments in Marxist, feminist and postcolonial theory. International tuition fees are £16,500 per year, home/UK fees are £8,150 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 83% student satisfaction rating, and a median graduate salary of £20,000 within three years.
