| 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 prepares you to work directly with children and young people who face challenges like trauma, behavioural issues, or family instability. You study psychology and sociology to understand how people develop and what shapes their choices, then learn hands-on skills for supporting and guiding kids in schools, group homes, hospitals, and community agencies. It suits people who want practical caregiving work rather than classroom teaching or clinical therapy. | This program combines the study of how young people develop and behave with the study of how society works and institutions function. You'll examine topics like family dynamics, education systems, social inequality, and policy that affects children and youth, drawing on psychology and social work perspectives. It suits students who want to understand people and social structures in depth before moving into careers like social work, education, counselling, or community development. |
