Nothing is too sacred or profane to be spared sociological scrutiny.
What is emphasized is the link between our own private lives, especially our problems, and social arrangements. For this reason, sociology and the study of society is political. The faculty of the Sociology program invites you to major in sociology, the scientific study of society and our lives in groups. Sociology majors also explore the major social problems facing societies today such as inequality, AIDS, terrorism, crime, modernism, war and pollution. Students are trained to analyze these problems scientifically and are encouraged to clarify their own values regarding these problems and possible solutions.
