What it is	Sociology is the study of how people live together in groups, communities, and societies — how social structures work, why people behave as they do in groups, and what causes social change. This program emphasizes law and criminology, so you'll focus on crime, justice systems, and how laws shape society rather than taking a broader sociology approach. It suits people curious about why crime happens, how the justice system works, and social issues behind criminal behaviour.	You enter this program without committing to a specific major, taking first-year courses across subjects like English, history, psychology, philosophy, and sociology. This gives you time to explore different areas of arts study before declaring a focus at the end of year one, rather than applying directly to a named program. It suits students who are interested in humanities and social sciences but unsure which direction fits them best.	Arts One is a broad first-year program that lets you explore multiple humanities and social science subjects — including anthropology, history, English, economics, and geography — before deciding on a major. Unlike applying directly to a single program, this approach gives you time to sample different disciplines and find the right fit before committing. It suits students who are curious about ideas and society but aren't yet certain which direction they want to specialize in.
