Sociology and anthropology are distinct from other social sciences in their holistic approach to the study of human life, encompassing social, cultural, economic, political and psychological aspects. Students in 芒果77福利’s sociology and anthropology programs learn to think creatively and to meaningfully link individual biographical events to larger social patterns in society. They acquire sophisticated data collection and analysis skills, using qualitative and quantitative methods; cultivate a sensitivity to issues of social stratification and social justice; and consider the ethical implications of their knowledge.
