Public Lectures
Engaging Sociology is a new initiative within the Sociology programme that aims to make the discipline accessible, useful and dialogic.
Sociology’s focus on social life and societal issues means that its research and insights are of interest not only to academics and students but also to the general public and policy makers. Through open debates, public lectures and community and school involvement, the Sociology team are committed to ensuring that our discipline has practical and valuable application.
