The Bachelor of Arts in Sociology is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of social structures, institutions, and human interactions within diverse cultural contexts. The programme explores the foundations of sociological theory, social change, and the complex dynamics shaping contemporary societies.

Beginning with introductory studies in sociology and anthropology, students develop a fundamental understanding of social systems, culture, and human behavior. As the programme progresses, emphasis is placed on classical and modern sociological theories, applied sociology, and regional studies such as the Sociology of South Asia.

The curriculum also addresses contemporary social issues, including social problems, indigenous knowledge systems, religion and society, and the interaction between Buddhism and social life. Through courses in social research methodology, students gain practical skills in data collection, analysis, and interpretation, preparing them for academic research and professional practice.

By integrating theoretical knowledge with practical application, the programme encourages critical thinking, social awareness, and analytical competence. Graduates are equipped to understand social transformations, contribute to policy discussions, and engage responsibly with community development initiatives.

The B.A. in Sociology prepares students for careers in education, research, public administration, social services, non-governmental organizations, community development, and further postgraduate study. The programme aims to produce socially conscious graduates capable of addressing the challenges of a changing society with insight and integrity.
