The curriculum provides knowledge and tools to comprehend, research and analyze social phenomena, exposing students to diverse areas of societal life.
The curriculum is geared to students wishing to integrate into organizations involved in these spheres, individuals interested in the academic aspects of sociology and anthropology, and those wishing to gain tools for understanding the social and cultural reality in Israel and the world.
Syllabus
The syllabus exposes students to a broad range of topics: organizational behavior, organizational structure, human resources, Israeli society and its culture, social psychology, religions in Israel and worldwide, gender, and Middle Eastern issues.
