It will provide answers to the questions such as, “What is Sociology?  Why is Sociology?  Is Sociology a science?  What are the similarities and differences between Sociology and other social sciences?”  Then we will cover sociological theories, methodology, concepts as well as some major sociological topics and social institutions.
