Sociology

Course summary

Sociology is the study of how society works. It explores how the culture and groups we live in shape and control human behaviour. Sociology investigates the link between media and crime, why people join cults or become terrorists, why education can be damaging to young people, why the rest of the world is becoming more religious while Britain’s religious beliefs decline. Expect the best and be prepared to be surprised. Sociology will leave you questioning everything and everyone around you. It will open your eyes and allow you to look at the world in a way you have never seen it before. In a safe, non-judgmental environment, you will have the opportunity to explore these issues, get involved in debates and develop life skills.
