A single spark can ignite the flame! And that has been our journey from one person to now many at Sociology Group. We started in 2017, and have been going strong! We believe Social Science, a field which is studying us human beings, is like studying life itself.
It is thus important for us that subjects like Sociology, Psychology, Economics, History and others are not just subjects for people enrolled in schools or colleges, but for anyone and everyone who wants to learn more about them.
If you are someone who does indeed want to learn more, then you have come to the right place!
We have different initiatives such as Social Stories, Interviews, Meet the Professor, Book Reviews, through which we create opportunities for those who share our eagerness and excitement to learn about the ever evolving world around us. We offer a space to professors, researchers, students, individuals and learners where they can share their work, learn and connect with those who share similar interests.
We have all heard the phrase ‘Sharing is caring!’ and that is true for knowledge as well. Knowledge is best gained when it is shared. We have curated for you academic articles, research papers, dictionaries, academic writing guides, exam preparation guides, and articles to help you learn new things and get inspired
