- Description
-
The purpose of this course is to give students an overview of the field and familiarize them with some basic sociological concepts. This is a difficult task, because it requires us to look at our everyday world, to see it for the first time and forces us to reconsider things critically. Developing a sociological imagination can be a little uncomfortable at times, but it is also exciting.
- Objectives
-
Science and Sociology will help you understand the contemporary objections about social inequality, gender and race. This course will acquaint you with the relationship between sociology and other disciplines, techniques for reading original research articles, basic sociological writing skills and social origins.
