Department of Sociology

LSE Sociology is one of the premier sociology departments in the world, with a dynamic research culture, eminent staff and associated researchers, and international student body. It was also the first Sociology department in the United Kingdom, and has played a unique historical role in defining and developing the discipline - nationally and internationally - since 1904. LSE Sociology has long been noted for its empirical rigour, its involvement in the urgent public and policy issues of the day, and its global perspective.
