Bachelor of Social Science Sociology and Anthropology

The sociology and anthropology major gives you the intellectual ability to put any facet of modern society under the microscope by providing critical thinking and research skills. The benefit of studying sociology and anthropology courses is that they provide fascinating insights into how society works by examining the way we live now and the wide variety of different societies and cultures that have existed over millennia. By 'making the normal look strange', sociologists and anthropologists interrogate the way traditions and inequalities reproduce within societies undergoing the processes of rapid change. A major in sociology and anthropology will provide you with key skills that are very attractive to employers in a labour market increasingly driven by communication technology, information and networks.
