What you will study

The 60 CP module offer has an introductory area (Introduction to Sociology and Introduction to Empirical Social Research, 10 CP each), a foundation area (Methods of Global Social Analysis and Global Perspectives of Sociology, 10 CP each) and an extension area in which two of three modules are chosen: Economy and Society, Culture and Society, or Politics and Society in a global perspective (10 CP each). It is combined with a 90 CP core subject.

Career pathways

Because Global Sociology is studied as a module offer within a combination bachelor, the chosen core subject shapes the professional qualification; a master's degree and, where applicable, a doctorate is required for leading positions or work in research and teaching.
