What it isSociology is the study of how people interact, form groups, and build societies — looking at things like families, workplaces, inequality, and culture. This co-op option lets you take paid work terms with organizations studying social issues, giving you real-world experience alongside your classes. It suits people curious about why society works the way it does and who want to test that interest in actual jobs before deciding on a career path.A sociology degree means studying how people form groups, institutions, and societies — why they act the way they do together, what shapes their beliefs and behaviours, and how power and inequality work in the real world. This four-year program includes a co-op work term, giving you paid experience in a workplace related to social research, policy, or community work. It suits people curious about how society works who want both classroom theory and hands-on practice in fields like research, social services, or communications.A BA General with an Area of Concentration lets you study one subject in depth — say English Studies or Economics — while taking electives across other humanities and social sciences. Unlike a specialized honours program, this approach gives you flexibility to explore multiple fields without committing fully to a single discipline. It suits students who have a clear interest in one area but want room to discover related subjects and keep career options open.
