In the age where humanity is aspiring to inhibit mars and moon, it comes as surprise that some of our population still lacks access to basic amenities and a dignified life.

By harmonising both classical and modern theories of sociology along with innovative methodological practices; the department will strive to create global citizens while focussing on their cognitive and meta-Cognitive skills.
