Sociology is the study of society. The questions it asks include: - How has my sense of identity come about? What does it mean to be a Feminist today? Is the education system fair? - Why have divorce rates increased over time? Why do men account for 95% of the prison population? Is society becoming more secular? - Underpinning these questions is an exploration of the ways in which different sociologists see and investigate the social world. In an age of rapid social change and uncertainty – the study of Sociology is as essential now as it ever was. Sociology unravels the mystery of social structures such as class, ethnicity and gender. The course is varied and adaptable; students will acquire a range of valuable skills for higher education: analysis; debate; criticism; empathy; objectivity and essay-writing techniques. Importantly, Sociology reminds students that we should always keep an open mind and question what we see in our world.
