MA Sociology and Social Research at University of Bremen

Empirical social research shows that the number of well-educated students needed by universities and also by research facilities that do not belong to a university cannot be supplied satisfactorily. For that reason, it is not only in the interest of the Institute of Sociology to train qualified personnel for its own research projects, but is also important in general, since the labor market for sociologically- and empirically-trained graduates with a masters degree is very good. This applies to both publicly-supported research facilities and social research organized by private industry (such as market research and opinion research).
