Students of all universities sooner or later face the need to write essays. But especially humanitarian students have to write a lot of them in various subjects, including sociology. Topics of essays in sociology can be given as a teacher of the department, and you can choose yourself. Always check with your teacher. If for some reason you don’t like the topic that you received and you want to write another, contact your teacher with a request to replace it. In principle, the topics of research papers, unlike term papers and dissertations, are not approved by order of the faculty, so the teacher, if desired, can meet you and unilaterally make such a decision. This is where the “human factor” works. If you attend lectures, are active in the classroom, perform all the assigned tasks, then, believe me, the teacher will have no reason to refuse you.

Although sociology is a complex and voluminous subject, essays on it are written according to generally accepted rules and represent an independent written statement of a source on a particular topic. Remember that for the correct writing of the essay you need to use at least four different sources, not counting, of course, the textbook.

What should be the research paper

1. It must be written correctly.
2. Must be consistent with the topic under study.
3. Meet all the standard requirements for writing essays.

With the first paragraph, everything is clear. Which teacher will like a work written with grammatical and syntactical errors, sometimes distorting the meaning of what is written?

We will deal with the second paragraph. How not to stray from the topic, to grasp the essence of the problem under study and, at the same time, to keep within 20-25 pages of printed text? First, when starting work on a research paper, check with the teacher or at the department the topics of essays on sociology and their scope. Secondly, make a plan and follow it when doing the work. When studying literature selected independently, constantly check the plan. This will help you not get lost and get into the essence of the problem, which means to understand it.

If you have previously written essays at school, then you are probably already familiar with the requirements for its design. But in a university, the requirements may vary slightly. Therefore, worry in advance and clarify them at the department.

Requirements for writing an essay

These requirements are standard and include:

• compliance with the structure of the research paper (the presence of a title (title) sheet, table of contents (contents), introductory part, main, conclusion, list of used literature and other sources, appendix (if necessary));
• A4 format;
• Times New Roman font with size 14;
• line spacing 1.5pt;
