What the college says

Sociology is the study of human society and group behaviour. We investigate how key parts of society work and their ‘true’ purpose. Society is complex, and we can’t study all of it, so we study what sociologists believe are some of the most important parts; families and education (Y12), crime and religion (Y13). Although we interact with these areas on an almost daily basis, the sociological explanations of their function will be entirely new to you. If you want to learn how human behaviour is affected by society, then study sociology.
