Make a difference - Study Sociology

What is Sociology?

Sociology is the study of human society, social relationships, and the patterns that shape everyday life. Sociologists explore how people interact, how communities function, and how institutions influence behavior. Through careful observation, research, and analysis, sociologists examine the structures and dynamics that guide social life — from family and health to politics and culture. With the goal of making the world a better place, sociologists seek to understand the forces that shape our experiences and use that knowledge to promote positive change.
