Sociology
Sociology is the subject which deals with the study of the social world and the behavior of mankind in a variety of situations. It tries to explore the various ways in which the social structure groups, organizations, communities, social categories (such as class, sex, age, or race), and various social institutions (economical, political, or religious) affect human behavior, actions, and various opportunities available to them. Thus Sociology provides many distinguishing viewpoints on the world
The field of sociology includes a large number of specialties: race and ethnic relations, urban sociology, deviance, political sociology, sociology of the family and social psychology. Almost any aspect of how human beings gather together in groups, organizations, and societies can be studied within sociology. Sociology provides a broad umbrella under which many ways of examining human social life are included.
In short, it involves all aspects of human experience and activity. Sociology allows students to integrate knowledge from a variety of social disciplines including history, economics, psychology, political science and anthropology. Consequently, it is an appropriate concentration for students who are interested in a wide variety of subjects and academic fields.
