Semester, 1 credit

Prerequisite: None

 

Sociology provides opportunities for students to study human social behavior from a group perspective.  The sociological perspective is a distinct method of studying recurring patterns vary across time, among cultures, and in social groups.  The students will gain an insight into “why” groups act as they do.  We will seek to recognize the beginning of group behavior and the impact that group behavior has on society.  Emphasis will be on the foundation of group behavior-culture, social interaction, socialization and the life course of humans. There will be a fee charged for this class.

 

The student will study human behavior from a group perspective.  Students will describe the development of sociology as a social science and identify methods and strategies of research.  Society will be examined by students through the study of culture on group behavior and social structure/institutions.  The changing nature of society will be examined by students to help analyze the impact of social groups on individual behavior.
