You will build upon an understanding of basic sociological ideas such as culture, norms, values, status, role and socialisation and learn to tackle issues such as why we live in families and why we have rich and poor. You will develop the ability to interpret and analyse information presented in various ways, and learn to evaluate arguments, theories, values and ideologies.
