Master Sociologie

Tuition costs 250 EUR per year.

The Master Sociologie, or Sociology, examines how social structures, institutions, and interactions shape human behavior and social outcomes. Typical subjects include classical and contemporary sociological theory, research methods spanning both quantitative survey analysis and qualitative fieldwork, and specialized areas of study such as urban sociology, the sociology of work, social inequality, migration, and political sociology. Students learn to design and conduct empirical social research, analyze data on social phenomena, and situate their findings within broader theoretical debates about how societies function and change. Graduates of sociology programs pursue varied careers, including roles as social researchers, policy analysts, program evaluators for public institutions or nonprofit organizations, market or social research consultants, and positions in fields such as urban planning or human resources that benefit from an understanding of social dynamics. Many also continue into doctoral research for careers in academic sociology. This Master Sociologie is offered by École des hautes études en sciences sociales in Aubervilliers, France. The program runs for 2 years, with an inferred start date in September, and is taught in French. Yearly tuition is 250 EUR. Applicants should have strong analytical and writing skills along with an interest in social research methods, since the coursework combines theoretical study with training in the empirical methods used to investigate social phenomena.
