What you study	Sociology	Anthropology Sociology	Social Policy Sociology
What it is	A Sociology BA is the study of how people live together in groups and societies — looking at culture, inequality, institutions, and social change through research and theory. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms in relevant organizations, giving you real-world experience alongside your degree. This program suits people curious about understanding society and wanting to test what they've learned in actual workplaces before graduating.	You study how human societies work and how people live together — sociology focuses on modern society and social structures, while anthropology looks at different cultures across time and place. Together they give you tools to understand why people behave the way they do, both in your own community and elsewhere in the world. This program suits people curious about human behaviour who want to explore it from multiple angles rather than pick just one approach.	You study how gender shapes society, institutions, and policy, examining inequality, identity, and social change through sociology and social policy. This is an analytical, research-focused program rather than an activism-based one, centred on understanding systems and structures. It suits students who want to think critically about social issues and pursue careers in policy, research, social services, or advocacy.
