The first year will often serve as an introduction to issues in contemporary sociology and social and political problems, providing the opportunity for students to discover the aspects of sociology that interest them the most. Modules will then become more specialized in the second year and third year, branching out across a range of different topics including gender equality, race and culture, politics and equity. Minhaj University will also teach social research skills, which will be incorporated across the degree program. Minhaj University offers the opportunity to choose from a range of modules so students can adapt their learning program to suit their needs and interests.
