Chinese and Sociology | Bachelor's degree | Languages | On Campus | 4 years | University of Leeds | United Kingdom

China plays an important role on the global stage and is one of the world's largest economies. This degree combines core and optional modules allowing you to become proficient in a major world language while gaining a broader understanding of the History and culture of China and East Asia as a whole. We teach Chinese from beginners' level, but if you already have some knowledge of the subject we can normally accommodate you.Sociology allows you to study the ways in which societies and institutions are structured and organised, as well as the effects they have on human behaviour. Core modules introduce you to key theories and approaches in Sociology and how they apply to today's society. You then develop this knowledge in optional modules allowing you to explore important and often controversial issues such as drug policy, crime, the sex trade, family dynamics, disability rights and protest movements.
