The Bachelor's Degree in Sociology offers an interdisciplinary education to train sociologists for social research and for the planning and management of social policies, particularly those relating to processes of exclusion and marginalisation. It is organised into two tracks: 'Professional and Teaching of Human Sciences' and 'Crime and Deviance' (the latter focusing on marginalisation processes and on the legal and psychological aspects of crime).
Both provide the foundations of the sociological disciplines, social research methodology and statistics, together with historical, anthropological, legal and economic knowledge, in order to analyse and interpret social phenomena from a multidisciplinary perspective.
The 'Professional and Teaching of Human Sciences' track offers two profiles: the 'Professional' profile, for working in the professions, research and complex organisations, possibly continuing with the Master's Degree in Sociology and Social Research (LM-88); and the 'Teaching of Human Sciences' profile, which secures credits in the fields M-FIL, M-STO, M-PED, M-PSI and SPS useful for access to the teaching competition classes A-18 and A-65 and to the qualifying paths provided for by current legislation. Both profiles give graduates the same professional opportunities.

For admission to the Sociology degree, students are expected to have an appropriate study method, basic knowledge of the development of contemporary society, and fundamental notions of the structure of the State, citizenship and emerging social problems. The programme organises annual remedial courses to fill any gaps in the requirements for admission. Initial preparation is assessed through suitable orientation tests on general and historical culture and elements of civic education relating to the structure of the State and contemporary society. Additional Learning Requirements (OFA) are assigned on the basis of the score obtained in the disciplinary field SPS/07 on current affairs and social issues, as indicated in the admission call. Depending on the test result, OFA are assigned to students with a total score below 18, and are cleared through additional seminar-based teaching in the sociological area (in particular SPS/07), which students must attend.
