Sociology examines how individuals structure their collective existence, the limitations they face, patterns in their interactions, and the origins and impacts of social disparities. A unique aspect of our Sociology program, praised by external reviewers and alumni alike, is its integration of sociological, criminological, and anthropological viewpoints. You'll gain foundational knowledge of sociology, including core concepts, theories, and methodologies used to analyze modern societies and social transformations. By examining both classic and current sociological studies across diverse cultures, we'll investigate themes like social class, identity formation, disparities, daily experiences, well-being, progress, and interpersonal connections, incorporating insights from sociology and anthropology.
