Bachelor of Arts in Sociology / Bachelor of Social Science (Dual Degree)

Program Overview

This double degree program is designed for students whose interests span the Arts and Social Sciences. It will give you the skills and versatility to work across a range of academic and professional disciplines, including the opportunity to develop global perspectives and communication skills. You need to include a Social Science Major, so you can design your own academic program within the Bachelor of Social Science program structure. This qualification in Social Science is then combined with an Arts major.

Major: Sociology
Sociology is the study of society and culture. Using diverse methods, practices and theories, it helps us understand social life. Sociology is fundamental to the social sciences because the quality of life of every human on the planet is directly or indirectly influenced by their relative position within, and responses to, society.

This major in Sociology provides you with a thorough training in the methods, theories and select leading areas of contemporary sociology. In the Sociology major, you will have opportunities to study particular themes from a sociological perspective, including inequalities, deviance, identities, gender, religion, medicine and health care, ethnicity and migration, and the family, among other possibilities.

A Bachelor of Arts with a major in Sociology will prepare you for both employment and a research higher degree.
