If you are the type of person who doesn't necessarily follow the crowds (but are fascinated by their behavior), the type who is truly interested in what is going on in the world, then Sociology should interest you.

Sociology helps us look more objectively at our society and other societies. It directs attention to how the parts of society fit together and change, and the consequences of that social change. We are faced with an ever increasingly complex and rapidly changing social milieu in modern industrial-bureaucratic societies. A study of Sociology provides the conceptual tools and methods for understanding the social milieu--whether it is expressed in:

  • group attitudes
  • values
  • behaviors
  • political processes of workers
  • families
  • organizations
  • consumers
  • governments
