What the college says

Sociology is the critical study of society. Students of sociology are invited to explore the interaction between individual and society in terms of the way in which social institutions such as the family, education, mass media, religion and the economy influence the way in which individuals behave as members of society. Sociology will encourage you to develop critical insights into the way in which society operates. You will be encouraged to consider the various ways in which sociologists attempt to research society including observation techniques, interviewing, social surveys and personal documents. This is a great opportunity to gain important insights into the way individuals are influenced by social factors.
