Sociology and Anthropology are disciplines for students with a special interest in human relationship and the multiplicity of interactive cooperation, conflict and communication which constitutes any society. The School of Social Sciences and International Studies offers a diverse program where students may choose courses in sociology, social anthropology, cultural theory, cultural studies, sociological approaches to communication and the public media, political sociology and policy-related studies.
Students must complete 42 units of credit in order to gain a major in Sociology, including 12 units of credit in Level 1 courses and at least 12 units at Level 3. Up to 18 units of credit in courses undertaken as part of the Nura Gili program (courses with ATSI prefixes) will be acceptable as part of the Sociology major.
Level 1
First year sociology offers a broad introduction to sociology as a profound and productive way of describing, analysing and understanding society. Students can choose between five introductory courses. Those students intending to take a major must do two first year courses. As the course descriptions indicate, Level 1 courses may focus on different societies and cultures, but each is an introduction for university students beginning their study of the discipline and is preliminary and prerequisite for more advanced study in later years of the degree.
Upper Level Courses
The availability of Upper Level courses varies from year to year. For available Sociology and Anthropology (SOCA) courses, please refer to the Courses by Subject Area link in the Table of Contents.
Honours level study is available in Sociology. Students interested in Honours should refer to the Honours plan record for entry requirements.
