Sociology Program

Introduction

Sociology is the study of social life, cultural and social change and the social causes and consequences of human behaviour. By acquiring sociological skills students develop the ability to analyse a wide variety of social processes, institutions, causes of social change and the structures of groups and societies.  Specific areas of study for sociologists include gender and social class, crime and punishment, race and ethnicity, the family, welfare and education reform, everyday life experiences, social movements, social change in Asia, sport and entertainment, and youth and popular culture.
