What the college says

We all live in society – why would you not want to understand it better? If you are the sort of person who doesn’t necessarily follow the crowd but is fascinated by behaviour then Sociology is for you.

Sociology looks at how the pieces of society fit together and how schools, religion and laws interconnect, control and influence human life.
