| What it is | Sociology is the study of how people live together in groups and societies — why they behave certain ways, how institutions work, and what shapes culture and inequality. You'll examine real-world issues like family, work, crime, and social change through research and theory. This program suits you if you're curious about people and society and want to understand the forces that shape human behaviour and social structures. | This program examines how gender and sex shape society, history, culture, and power across different fields like sociology, social work, and other disciplines. Unlike a straight sociology degree, it centres gender and feminist perspectives as the main lens for understanding social issues. It suits students interested in understanding inequality and social change, especially those drawn to activism, policy work, or community-based careers. | This program combines psychology, sociology, and social work to help you understand how children and young people develop, and how social systems affect their lives. Unlike a straight psychology degree, it weaves in practical social work perspectives and community contexts from the start. It suits people drawn to working with youth in schools, children's services, counselling, or community support roles. |
