Introduction to Sociology

Sociology is the study of society and culture which aims to explore our interdependencies and differences. By providing a critical lens to topics such as inequality, gender and sexuality, ethnicity, culture, and deviance, emphasis is placed on understanding power relations in society and their impact on particular communities. Students explore key concepts, figures, and theories of the discipline of sociology while developing their own sociological imagination. The focus is on student enlightenment and empowerment to challenge their worldview through a combination of discussions, case studies, readings, and lectures.
