SOC 165 - Sociological Perspectives

Institution:

Nichols College

Subject:

Sociology

Description:

Sociological Perspectives adopts a topical approach to the study of sociology, first providing an overview of the scientific methods used in the social sciences and then an in-depth analysis of some particular topic within the field. Multiple sections of this course are offered, each with its own distinct focus, but, whatever the specific topic, an underlying theme of critical thinking about social issues is central to the course. Each course will be divided into two parts: 30% of the course focuses on the foundations of sociological thinking, and is included in all sections; and the other 70% builds on that foundation with a focus on a particular topic within sociology. A student may take either SOC 165 or SOC 161 but not both.
