What it is	You study how gender, feminism, and power shape society by combining feminist theory with sociology's analysis of social structures and inequality. Unlike a straight sociology program, you examine gender as a central lens across all topics — from work and family to politics and culture. This suits students interested in understanding social change, inequality, and how identity intersects with institutions, who want classroom learning paired with work experience.	This program combines the study of how science and technology shape society and how social forces influence technological development. Unlike a pure science or pure sociology program, you examine the relationship between the two — asking questions like how social values affect which technologies get built, or how new technology changes the way people live. It suits students curious about the real-world impact of innovation who want social science thinking alongside technical understanding.	A three-year Bachelor of Arts lets you choose from humanities and social science subjects like history, English, anthropology, geography, and environmental studies. Unlike an honours degree, you complete fewer credits overall and have more flexibility to explore different fields or combine subjects without specializing deeply in one. This suits students who want a broad liberal arts education or who are still deciding what to focus on.	You study arts subjects alongside business fundamentals in a joint-major degree. This combines the breadth of humanities and social sciences with business skills like finance, management, and organizational thinking, rather than letting you focus on just one. It suits people who want a flexible foundation for careers that blend analytical and communication skills across diverse fields.
