What it is	You study sociology — how people, groups, and societies work — but with a focus on solving real problems rather than just theory. You'll learn to analyze social issues like inequality, crime, and community development, then apply that knowledge to actual situations through projects and research. This suits people who want to understand human behaviour and social change while building practical skills for work in non-profit organizations, government, or social services.	You study how gender shapes society, institutions, and policy, examining inequality, identity, and social change through sociology and social policy. This is an analytical, research-focused program rather than an activism-based one, centred on understanding systems and structures. It suits students who want to think critically about social issues and pursue careers in policy, research, social services, or advocacy.	You study how crime happens, how the criminal justice system works, and why people break laws. The program draws on forensics, psychology, sociology, and law to examine crime from multiple angles rather than focusing on just one discipline. It suits students interested in understanding criminal behaviour and the justice system who want a broad foundation before deciding whether to pursue police work, victim services, legal studies, or social policy.
