What is Sociology?

Sociology is the study of society. It is a discipline that uses various methods of empirical investigation and critical analysis to understand human social activity in many different contexts. Sociology majors learn how sociologists study human behavior ranging from the micro-level of individuals involved in social interaction to the macro-level of complex groups and organizations that influence the individual. Some sociologists focus on the study of common, routine, and norms that guide human behavior in everyday life. Sociologists do research on human social activity in small-scale pre-industrial societies as well as large scale industrial and post-industrial societies.
