Students taking this course typically choose it as an elective for a very specialized degree, from Business Administration to Information Systems to Interior Design.

the ability to draw connections between formal sociological theory and concepts and real-world personal experience;
the acquisition of their sociological imagination by indicating an awareness of the relationship between personal experience and the wider society; and
