The Experience

How do social constructs like gender, race and class impact the experience of individuals? How do movements for social justice support progress towards a more equitable world? Students in Sociology at Trent explore the complex contexts of how people live their lives, and the societies in which we choose to organize ourselves. Rooted in the social sciences and inspired by a passion for social justice, this program is progressive, critical and timely in the way it engages students in understanding and acting on the consequences of social change. Complete your studies with a heightened understanding of human relationships and society. A Sociology degree is an excellent foundation for law school, teachers college, social work or similar programs.
