Sociology means the “science of society”. It aims to use
scientific methods such as questionnaire survey, in-depth interview and field
observation to study human behaviors in a social setting.
Sociology students are not passive learners; rather they
have a practical mindset. They want to know how social inequalities and poverty
can be overcome, and propose feasible solutions to these and other social
problems.
Another key concern of sociology is to build an inclusive
society for all citizens, in which disadvantaged and marginal groups such as
ethnic minorities can have the same opportunities to follow their dreams.
Sociology students are interested to study how social
institutions such as the family, education, economy, government and non-profit
organizations operate. They want to figure out how various social groups can
cooperate with each other to bring about positive social change, such as
promoting the well-being of the elderly, women, workers, and other people in
need.
