Students
of the Associate of Arts (Sociology) degree program will gain
multi-disciplinary knowledge in the faculties of arts, humanities, and social
science, and develop their critical thinking and research skills. The program
also includes a customizable concentration in sociology, which allows students
to explore different areas in sociology, including sociological theory and
research methods, Canadian society, popular culture, crime, and social
movements. Sociology studies the interactions between individuals and the
societies in which they live. If you are interested in how and why social
constructs such as gender, race, class, ethnicity and religion influence our
individual choices and social circumstances, consider an academic career in
sociological study. International students completing the Associate of Arts
(Sociology) Degree program at Alexander College are also eligible to apply for
a Post-Graduation Work Permit. An Associate
of Arts Degree in Sociology offers a powerful lens into how societies function,
how institutions shape behavior, and how individuals navigate systems of power,
culture, and inequality. It’s a versatile foundation for careers in social
services, community development, and public administration or a launchpad
toward a bachelor’s degree in sociology, social work, public policy, or law.
