Department of Sociology

The Master's Programme is strongly connected to two of the core research areas of the University of Graz: “Heterogeneity and Cohesion” and “The Cultural History of Europe and Its Historical and Current Understanding”. The sociological analysis of culture is an important research topic inside these core research areas, because processes of social integration and exclusion can only be understood properly if cultural phenomena are taken into account. The principle of the Joint Programme to connect research and teaching is secured by this interconnection with the core research areas.

When choosing Graz as your entrance university you need to provide proof of German proficiency on the level C 1.
