Choosing a sociology dissertation topic can be so hard!
It is a decision that you’re going to have to live with for a long time to come.

Just pick a topic that’s small, manageable, and interesting to you.

The most important things to keep in mind when choosing your dissertation topic are:
Make sure you choose a topic you find interesting. Don’t worry if it’s over-done as you can always find a unique angle. You’ll start reading articles and textbooks about the topic and find a unique angle for your own study.
I’ll often have students come to me and say “I don’t know what to do for my dissertation!” I’ll often respond by saying: “Well, what was your favorite paper you wrote in your degree that you really enjoyed?” All you have to do is dig deeper on that topic you’re already interested in and know a bit about.
Make it small. You’re not going to get a Nobel Prize for your dissertation. Too many students try to create a huge, mind-bending dissertation. No, the best thing to do is bring it back down to earth and do something small. It’ll grow and grow and you’ll constantly need to keep bring it back down to size – so start small in the first place.
Every dissertation supervisor has strengths and weaknesses. Talk to your dissertation supervisor about their expertise. They will be experts in certain types of methods and they will have their own topics that they’re experts in, too. If you work within your supervisor’s wheelhouse, you’ll always have an expert to lean on for help.
Most dissertations follow a similar structure, but make sure you check with your dissertation supervisor in case there are specific requirements within your school.
A typical sociology dissertation follows the following structure:
The introduction should give a fly-by of the topic, show what your contribution is, and outline the key points in each section to follow. I encourage my students to write their introductions last – it’ll be easier to write it at the end.
The literature review gives a background on what has already been written on the topic. It outlines existing themes in the current research, then shows how you will build on previous studies to present something new and interesting.
This is optional, and may not be expected by your school. A theoretical framework outlines the lens through which you will look at the topic (e.g. feminism, postmodernism , etc.). If you are studying social class, you might talk about Bourdieu’s theory of capital here. If you are studying nationalism, you might talk about Benedict Anderson’s Imagined Communities concept. If you are studying race, you might outline Said’s concept of Orientalism , and so on. Explain all the theoretical perspectives you will use to analyze the data.
This section explains how you will collect and analyze the data. Common methodologies include qualitative and quantitative analysis. Common methods include grounded research, interviews or questionnaires, discourse analysis, social semiotics, etc. You will also use this section to outline your ethics procedures and how you ensure your data is reliable.
In the analysis section you present the data you collected in themes. Some research traditions blend analysis and discussion, while others separate out the analysis and discussion. If you separate them out, this section may be quite short. Check with your dissertation supervisor for guidance.
Go Deeper: 15 Data Analysis Examples
The discussion gives your perspective on what the data reveals. You may blend the discussion and analysis, or you may write them separately. If you are using a theoretical framework, you will bring that framework to bear when analyzing the data by making statements like: “From a feminist perspective, this data shows…”
The conclusion should sum up your key findings, outline strengths and shortcomings of your study, and what the implications of the study would be. Good conclusions also state what future lines of research should be so you are leaving the door open for future research.
I hope this list of sociology dissertation ideas has been useful to you! I’d encourage you to choose a topic that interests you and change it so it is a topic you’re comfortable with (remember: consult your dissertation supervisor for help).

Singling out the best sociology topic to explore in your dissertation assignment can be quite a challenge at first. So some ideas can go a long way to give you the inspiration you need to get started the right way.
While there are many ideas you can think of from off the top of your head, there’s a high chance some won’t be a good fit. Ideally, you need to choose a topic that allows you to explore existing studies and add current value in the field of psychology .

50 Topic Ideas To Kickstart Your Research Project
If you’re just starting out exploring sociology-related topics for your dissertation, thesis or research project, you’ve come to the right place. In this post, we’ll help kickstart your research by providing a hearty list of research ideas , including real-world examples from recent sociological studies.
PS – This is just the start…
We know it’s exciting to run through a list of research topics, but please keep in mind that this list is just a starting point . These topic ideas provided here are intentionally broad and generic , so keep in mind that you will need to develop them further. Nevertheless, they should inspire some ideas for your project.
To develop a suitable research topic, you’ll need to identify a clear and convincing research gap , and a viable plan to fill that gap. If this sounds foreign to you, check out our free research topic webinar that explores how to find and refine a high-quality research topic, from scratch. Alternatively, consider our 1-on-1 coaching service .
While the ideas we’ve presented above are a decent starting point for finding a research topic, they are fairly generic and non-specific. So, it helps to look at actual sociology-related studies to see how this all comes together in practice.
Below, we’ve included a selection of recent studies to help refine your thinking. These are actual studies, so they can provide some useful insight as to what a research topic looks like in practice.
As you can see, these research topics are a lot more focused than the generic topic ideas we presented earlier. So, for you to develop a high-quality research topic, you’ll need to get specific and laser-focused on a specific context with specific variables of interest. In the video below, we explore some other important things you’ll need to consider when crafting your research topic.
If you’re still unsure about how to find a quality research topic, check out our Research Topic Kickstarter service, which is the perfect starting point for developing a unique, well-justified research topic.

This section features descriptions for the three major papers of the course.
The aim of this paper is to develop a thesis and to argue for it with reference to theoretical and case study materials from our readings.
You are required to meet with the writing tutor about your paper before completing it. Please make an appointment to meet with her next week or the following by emailing her at least 48 hours before you wish to meet. In addition, feel free to see me to discuss your ideas!
7-8 double-spaced pages, regular font (this is 12 pt Times) (roughly 2,000 words). Do not exceed 8 pages. These are argumentative papers - develop your own thesis and argue it by marshalling evidence from our readings and class discussions. Be sure to engage the arguments of and quote at least three of our authors.
Due in Lec #9
Choose one of the following topics:
Sample Student Paper ( PDF ) (Courtesy of Aayesha Siddiqui. Used with permission.)
The aim of this second paper is critically to engage an issue of current social concern and controversy in the U.S. With reference to both theoretical and ethnographic case study materials from our readings, drawing from US and other cultural settings.
First Draft Due in Lec #17
Please consider meeting with the writing tutor about your paper at the rough draft stage - once you’ve completed much of this draft! - and/or when planning your revisions after receiving my comments on your draft.
Papers are to be 7-8 double-spaced pages (roughly 2,000 words). Do not exceed 8 pages. These are argumentative papers - develop your own thesis and argue it by marshalling evidence from our readings, films, class discussions, media articles. Be sure to engage the arguments of at least three of our authors. All papers should speak to intersections of gender, sex, sexuality.
Choose an area of contemporary cultural, legal, political and/or ethical concern or debate:
Write a paper identifying specific concerns related to one of these topics, analyzing the cultural, historical, and political-economic elements that make this a social issue (its “problematization,” to use Foucault’s term; see Prieur pp. 126-27). To do so, draw on recent news stories, popular magazine articles, op-ed pieces, legal decisions as well as case studies presented in our readings. You will want to describe briefly the key arguments or positions on the issue, but the majority of your paper will be devoted to your interpretation and analysis of it. This means you will want to address the following sorts of questions: WHY this has become an issue of social concern now, at this historical moment, and why are the particular terms of debate as they are? What is at stake here symbolically, materially, and institutionally in these debates or negotiations about gender and sexuality; that is, what are the real and/or perceived repercussions for individuals and for a society? Conclude your essay with a brief discussion of what your analysis leads you to advocate - this could be a specific legal or political action, a line of scholarly inquiry, an education policy, etc.
For this paper, I encourage you to write a paper concerning the subjective, personal experience of having a gendered sense of self, identity, embodiment. This doesn’t have to be your personal experience, per se, but I’d like you to explore how and why people respond in their everyday lives to the kinds of cultural scripts we’ve been tracing. The specific topic is open. Write a paper that you want to write.
You could write about sexual violence, birth control (as private matter and/or subject of state interest), sex ed, pregnancy and ultrasound, the abortion debate and ethics of abortion in the US as compared with Greece, ideologies and realities of “the family” - any of the topics we’ve recently addressed. Or you could propose a topic we haven’t touched on directly: an anthropological analysis of contemporary dating, for instance. In the past, students have interviewed their own mothers or peers about their experiences (e.g., teenage motherhood, parenting a child with disabilities, sex ed, etc.).
Paper Proposal Due in Lec #22
Submit a topic, thesis statement (what you plan to argue) and outline of what you plan to cover. If possible, an introductory paragraph would be nice to get. Also list the articles you plan to use. You must make use of class materials, quoting and engaging the arguments of at least Three authors we’ve read. Authors addressing ’experience’ include Abu-Lughod, Counihan, Stein, Heyes, di Leonardo, Landsman, Layne, Petchesky, etc. Proposals can be emailed to me or submitted in hard copy.
Please consider meeting with the writing tutor. And do come talk with me, before or after class, or by appointment.
Papers are to be 7-8 double-spaced pages (roughly 2,000 words). Do not exceed 8 pages.
If you’re stuck coming up with a topic and approach, please see or email me! I can also suggest relevant outside readings.
Final Paper Due in Lec #25 - our last class. This is a fixed due date (late papers will be docked).
It is a common fallacy, which almost all researchers initially commit, that ‘research’ is something that can bring an entirely new innovation in academia. Dissertations should always be based on the golden rule that the word ‘research’ is a combination of two words ‘re-‘ and ‘search’. So ideally, a dissertation should be focused on adding value to an existing research area by ‘re-searching’ the current material. Instead of going for buzzwords and a generic area of research, an optimum dissertation is always focused on a precise, narrow and easy to manage research area. While developing dissertation topics, research aims and objectives, researchers should always follow the advice to ‘never choose a topic merely on the grounds that it is hot in current debate.’ A preferable topic would be the one that may be less common but matches the researcher’s interest and aptitude. This article suggests topics for your sociology dissertation in the areas of cultural sociology, sociology of education, sociology of religion, sociology of family, economic sociology, criminology, industrial sociology, political sociology, comparative sociology and the sociology of gender.
Sociology of education dissertation topics, sociology of religion dissertation topics, sociology of family and marriage dissertation topics, economic sociology dissertation topics, sociology of crime/criminology dissertation topics.
Comparative sociology dissertation topics, sociology of gender dissertation topics.
Cultural sociology is one of the most commonly used disciplines of sociology. It covers analysis of a society’s macro level and micro level cultures, including their values, beliefs, norms, material and non-material culture etc. Normally cultural sociology is encountered through the ideas and theories of famous sociologists including Marx, Weber and Durkheim. Topics within this area that could be used for your sociology dissertation are:
Sociology of education studies the impact of various social elements on the education system of a society. These elements may include individuals of a society, public policies for education, structure of education and public sector institutes. It includes public sector schools as well as higher, further education and continuing education systems. Topics within the sociology of education that could be used for your sociology dissertation are listed below:
Sociology of religion encompasses a vast range of issues related to the impact that different elements create on religion and the impact that religion creates on various social issues. For instance, it includes the study of various beliefs, values and structures of religions in society, along with the impact that social elements, such as, social interaction, media and politics impose on religion. Similarly, this field of sociology covers contemporary issues, such as, the impact of social issues like gender, inequality and stereotyping on religion.
