The development and the existence of modern societies generates several, sometimes contradictory, processes. Technological progress is making our daily lives easier and at the same time triggers irreversible changes in the natural world around us. These changes also affect the daily lives of the individuals and communities that make up societies, influencing people's relationships and opportunities in life. The aim of the programme is to provide an appropriate and useful theoretical and methodological background for the study of these processes. With a degree in sociology, one can fulfill a wide range of occupations. Some examples of the fields covered are: human resource management, social policy, minority policy, education, health, urban management, urban development, regional and territorial development, socio-cultural sphere, media, marketing and public opinion research, human ecology and environment, advocacy, research management. Potential employers include both public and market sector companies, municipalities, NGOs.
