Sociology

UPDATED 20160317 12:46:01

Sociology provides you with a real opportunity to improve your social awareness by encouraging you to question what, at first, may seem to be common sense beliefs. You will investigate areas that have a direct impact on your life such as your role as a student, your position in your family and the impact that 24/7 mass media has on the development of your ideas. The course is designed to make sociology relevant to your own understanding of how you choose to understand the world around you. It teaches you that there are no right or wrong answers but a whole range of perspectives as to how we choose to understand our world. Sociology is a broad ranging subject and considers the impact of gender, race, and social class on our behaviour and achievement. It introduces you to a range of theories and research methods to help you understand how your society impacts upon you and how you make an impact on society.
