Department of Sociology

Welcome to the Department of Sociology, NSTU!!!!

 

The Department of Sociology is one of the fast-growing departments of the NSTU. Since its beginning, the Department has been trying to provide quality education with a team of very qualified and enthusiastic faculty members who have sound sociological insights and knowledge both in theory and practice.

The present global society is known as the knowledge and information-based society. Both knowledge and information are necessary to compete, survive and succeed. Hence, we are in the process of building partnership with the renowned home and overseas universities in order to share knowledge and

disseminate information. I do hope that with the constant efforts of faculty members and valuable supports from the Honorable Vice Chancellor, the Department of Sociology of the NSTU will create a platform in near future where students, teachers and scholars from home and abroad would interact and exchange their scientific knowledge and thereby contribute to the expansion of knowledge and information-based society.
