Sociology, University of Lincoln

Difficult to fully judge as it’s been online the entire time but can see that lecturers are trying there best to help

It’s nice enough, I enjoy the political side as it’s challenging snd sociology is also fun

Only first year but good so far

Really enjoying the course

Really enjoying the course

You learn about many different jobs you could go into with the course, really broadens your mind to the possibilities. Lots of optional modules in second and third year to tailor the course to you. It finishes quite early in the year (early April) even thought we’re paying the same amount as people whose courses stretch on till June, and there are only 2 personal tutor meetings a year in first and second year, and even then they are with a large group of others, so you don’t get one-to-one discussion with them.

Went in through clearing, ended up changing courses because it was a waste of time and mentally draining. Wishing to learn about crime and how to tackle it but ending up doing a year long course on research methods and sociology is a fantastic shot back to reality. I know someone who works as a prison officer and he doesn't have a degree, so saying that a prison officer is the best job to get with the degree is misleading and taking the piss. Had a decent personal tutor but he left halfway through the year to work at a respectable university. Lectures were just plain cringeworthy at points, I shouldn't have a lecturer tell me in full confidence that racism 'shouldn't exist because we're all one race, the human race.' I can read that on any 13 year old tumblr blog. I don't expect it from someone who is meant to be respected in that particular field.
