Phd Sociology Online
Is it possible to have a career in academia with a 2:1?
Hi all!
I have a 2:1 in Sociology. I graduated in July and am currently working as a temp in an office environment. I really want a job that engages me though, and would love to be able to do my own sociological research & publish articles.
Unfortunately I can’t afford to do a masters let alone a phd, so I already know those are out. I’m hoping it is still possible for me to do something like this, perhaps become a research assistant, but so far I’m having no luck in finding out information about this.
I have contacted one of my previous lecturers for advise, but I know she’s really busy with her own work & new students, so I’m not sure how much attention she can give me. Therefore I turn to you guys; does anybody know what careers a 2:1 in Sociology currently opens me up to, or know of any online resources that might be of help?
p.s. I’m in the UK, but I would consider jobs abroad.
If you want a career in academia you will almost definitely need to get a PhD. I got a 2.1, didn’t do a masters and am currently doing a fully sponsored PhD. Have a look for a sponsored one if You Can‘t afford one off Your Own back. Although because it’s sponsored it will be very competitive to get in. Try the link below for both academic jobs and sponsored PhDs. Good luck.
