Gain a deeper understanding of diverse lifestyles while reflecting on your own through UFV's Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Anthropology. Combining these fields offers the perfect lens to study how social structures and cultural norms shape your viewpoints, preconceptions, and perception of the world.
During your initial two years, you'll study core principles in sociology and anthropology. You'll contemplate human existence: Exploring hunter-gatherer communities or remote Himalayan settlements casts your urban environment in a fresh light. Analyzing struggles encountered by indigenous populations and developing nations fosters global awareness and citizenship.
In your upper years, you'll engage with advanced coursework. You'll analyze influential theoretical frameworks, debate modern concerns like worldwide integration and societal transformation, and master techniques for both numerical and observational research. Your program continuously cultivates respect for Canada's multicultural heritage and Indigenous traditions.
Upon graduation, you'll possess comprehensive knowledge of social systems, enhanced intercultural competencies, and valuable expertise in research methodology, critical thinking, and academic writing.
