Institute of Sociology

The curriculum is module-based. It allows each student to elastically shape his or her course of study. Such a formula allows the students to adapt the curriculum to their individual needs. There are six modules, divided into thematic blocks (e.g. social structures and processes, social institutions, social identities, research methods, or sociology in action). Each module has its obligatory courses and a number of optional courses to choose from.

The curriculum of second-cycle programmes includes the theoretical module, the methodological module, and the specialization courses: public sphere, communication in contemporary society, globalization – inequality – culture, market research, and public policy analysis. The students participate in obligatory and optional courses within the specialization framework.  

At the Jagiellonian University, third-cycle studies are conducted at doctoral schools.

We invite all people interested in doctoral studies in the discipline of Sociological Sciences to read the offer on the website of the Doctoral School in the Social Sciences of the Jagiellonian University.
