The University has a large postgraduate community, with nearly half our students studying at postgraduate level. Because of this we have a great amount of experience in developing and delivering postgraduate courses and in supporting postgraduate students.

The Department of Sociology at the University of Leicester has a long and respected tradition in both teaching and research. In the latest Research Assessment Exercise (2009), 75% of our submitted research was considered at least "internationally recognised" (rated 2* or better).

We currently offer the following postgraduate study options:

• MSc/MA Courses
• Research Degrees

We hope after finding out about our courses and life at Leicester you'll decide to join us.
