Career outcomes after Sociology
This module enables you to utilise your sociological knowledge to inform future career development. You will explore sociological conceptions of work and career. This will broaden the blunt notion of 'employability', prevalent in many education courses, as you will consider other important connected social strands in your life, e.g. housing, health, relationships and learning. The module will also explore how the labour market is organised, managed and segmented across class, gender and ethnic lines. This will enable you to consider how social position influences life-chances and provide insight into how you can utilise your sociological imagination to navigate the precarious 21st century labour market. You'll engage with formative and summative assessment opportunities that serve to facilitate your career and personal development.
