> One of the oldest UK social science departments, we were founded in the
> 1950s. Since our very early days we have offered students a distinctly
> interdisciplinary experience, bringing together sociologists, social
> policy analysts, social workers and social anthropologists under one roof.
> A central thread of sociological theory and research methods runs through
> everything we do, hence our name: Sociological Studies.
>
> Today that fertile mixture remains our great strength, and is widely
> recognised externally. Our teaching achieved a grading of 'Excellent' in
> the most recent Teaching Quality Assessment, recognising us as a major
> provider of high class education in our subject areas.
>
> The 2008 Research Assessment Exercise rated 95% of our research activity
> as of `international standard´. Of that, 45% was `internationally
> excellent´ and 20% `world-class´, which makes us a top-ten research
> department in our field in the UK.
