The MA is based on workshop methods, and covers a range of methodologies including interviewing and observation, analysis, ethnographic work and statistical analysis of large-scale quantitative data sets. It addresses a wide variety of contemporary theoretical traditions from discourse analysis to ethnomusicology and feminism.

Core courses will: introduce you to methodological and theoretical perspectives via data analysis exercises; cover the analysis of the role of numbers in constructing sociological arguments; enable you to learn both qualitative and quantitative computing and analytical skills. You also produce a dissertation, and choose options from a range that currently covers topics including: gendering research practice; contemporary culture and artistic practices; reading the city; the social theory of human rights and cosmopolitan law; race, gender and representation.
