The double major program in Sociology, and Economics is a dynamic and innovative educational opportunity that combines the strengths of three distinct disciplines, offering students a comprehensive and holistic understanding of human behaviour, social dynamics, and economic systems. These two interlinked disciplines have their own exclusive areas of expertise with conceptual and methodological specialisations which helps the student to have a clear understanding with regard to their possibilities. This program optimises the advantages of the two allied disciplines of Sociology, and Economics, theoretically and it offers to the students an opportunity to understand social phenomena holistically. Special attention is given in its design to develop critical thinking and creative faculties of the students and thereby promote responsible citizenship.
Sociology delves into the study of society and human interaction. This major examines social structures, cultural diversity, social inequalities, and how societies evolve over time. Students learn to analyse and address social issues, fostering an understanding of the complex web of relationships that shape our world. Graduates often pursue careers in social work, public policy, and advocacy, where they apply their knowledge to effect positive change.
Economics, the study of resource allocation, equips students with a keen understanding of the global economic landscape. They explore microeconomics, macroeconomics, and economic policy, gaining skills in quantitative analysis, problem-solving, and decision-making. Graduates are prepared for diverse careers in finance, business, government, or academia, contributing to economic growth and development.
This double major program is designed to foster a multidisciplinary approach to problem-solving, as it addresses real-world issues that require expertise in sociology, and economics. Students develop strong analytical, research, and communication skills that are highly sought after in a variety of professional fields. The program is characterised by a blend of theoretical knowledge, practical applications, and opportunities for research and internships. It encourages critical thinking and enables students to understand the intricate connections between individuals, societies, and economic forces.
At the end of the course graduates would be awarded with a Bachelor of Arts Sociology, Economics degree.
