About Social Inquiry
'Social inquiry gives one a new way of seeing the world'
(2005 postgraduate SI student)
Social inquiry brings together the disciplinary and professional fields of sociology, politics, history and culture studies. This multi-discipline approach is reflected in the research focus of the people who teach social inquiry.
Studying social inquiry involves engaging with innovative challenging material and exciting ideas and practices around social change, balancing research theory with practice. Australian and world politics, globalisation and internationalisation, local community issues and everyday life worlds, belief systems, ideologies and social structures are all explored. It equips you to implement social change and to make a difference in the social world.
