To develop students' knowledge of the dynamics of Australian society and cultures, and an appreciation of the processes of continuity and change through the development of students' research and critical analysis capabilities.

This will be achieved through investigating Australia’s geohistorical setting, the demography of the Australian population, cultural diversity, communities, work and the welfare state, social inequalities, rural and urban life, employment, the Australian family, tradition and authority, social structures and sanctions, sociological themes, approaches and concepts, culture and leisure, spirituality, religion and belief, popular culture and globalisation.
