About

The "Sociology â€“ European Societies" Master's programme is a research-oriented programme. It reflects current debates in theory-driven and problem-oriented research, and students learn to develop their own empirical research projects in the third semester. TheÂ curriculumÂ offers a range of approaches to theory and methods â€“ spanning fields of culture, social structure, politics, European integration and transformation â€“ and encourages active participation in research, from the identification of relevant questions to delivering sound results. The programme has a focus on quantitative methods, but students can also further develop their skills in qualitative approaches. The programme emphasises the comparative sociological study of European societies in a globalised and transnational world. It aims to enable students to apply theoretical and empirical tools of sociology in order to accomplish the following: describe and explain social structural, economic, and cultural differences across European countries understand the ways in which European societies are transformed by processes of regional integration investigate Europe in the context of globalisation and in contrast and connection to other world regions
