Sociology

The Department of Sociology of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at Acıbadem University opened in the 2016-2017 academic year. The course program is compatible with the sociology courses offered at other universities in Turkey and in Western countries. Much importance is placed on this compatibility in order for students, particularly post-graduate students, not to encounter any obstacles in their education. The program is taught in English which is advantageous for students who wish to participate in student exchange possibilities. Additionally, it helps students benefit from world literature and to undertake their post-graduate studies abroad should they wish to do so.

Sociology is a member of the social sciences family. In order for students to truly grasp the concept of sociology, they need to be familiar with the relation between sociology and social sciences, the common and different ground, and the opportunities for collaboration. The department offers compulsory and elective lessons in all the fields of social sciences in order to meet this requirement.
