The Blavatnik School of Government is one of the University of Oxford’s newest and most vibrant departments, combining the academic rigour of the top-ranked university in the world with an applied, real-world focus.

The Department of Sociology was established in 1999 to provide a renewed focus for sociological research and teaching in the University. Sociology at Oxford has a strong analytical, empirical and comparative orientation. Focus is on developing and testing theories that engage with real world problems. Particular strengths include the statistical analysis of social surveys, social demography, collection, management and analysis of complex datasets, the development of rational choice theory, microsocial experiments and simulation studies.
