Sociology is the study of society and human behaviour. This course is designed to equip students with knowledge of how our society works by looking at various aspects of our lives. It will do this by using both classical and modern theories of sociology and by examining the effect of social class, ethnicity, gender, age and other factors on people's life chances. It also considers the role of government and other agencies in the provision of services and how social policy affects various aspects of life. As part of the course students will be encouraged to develop transferable skills in research, evaluation, analysis, comparison and many other areas. Sociology is an excellent preparation for many careers. Examples include the caring professions such as nursing, social work, childcare and counselling; legal professions including police and solicitors; areas of business, especially human resources and human relations and teaching at both primary and secondary levels.
