BA Sociology

We're social creatures. We live and die as members of and contributors to a society. As sociologists, we look at how societies are constituted in Canada and across cultures. As a student, you learn methods to systematically observe, investigate and analyze societies. You also think critically about social problems and social change. While you study human behaviour, social interaction and organizational patterns, you also study the theory and process of social change, enhancing your thinking about the reasons for poverty, prejudice and other social problems. Sociology s many perspectives and methodological approaches will prepare you to make positive and effective social change in our society, or around the world.
