Take your passion for and curiosity about human connections to a higher level. If you want to dig more deeply into the scholarship of sociology, the Honours program offers the challenge and satisfaction of advanced sociological study. The centerpiece of the program is a student-designed, faculty-advised research project—your Honours thesis. Through this project, you gain skills in social science research methodology, expertise in the theoretical conceptualization of sociological problems and a detailed knowledge of a particular sociological issue. You formally present your findings to your peers and professors at an end-of-term research forum.
