What is Sociology?
Sociology is a discipline that studies the social phenomena of relationships between people. It covers all the topics between humans and society, focusing on the formation, evolution, and causes and effects of the emergence of specific social phenomena. The subject matter of sociology overlaps with other social science fields such as economics and political science, but is analyzed and explained through its unique sociological approach.
What do sociology monks study?
The content of the Sociology Seminary depends entirely on the student's own research direction, and the main research direction can be divided into theoretical social research and empirical social research. 
Theoretical social studies include social thought, classical social theory, history of sociology, social investigation methods, social anthropology, etc. Empirical social research, on the other hand, pays more attention to the practical problems of modern society, such as discrimination against minorities, declining birthrate and aging population, and women's social inflow and outflow.
How do I get a Fellowship in Sociology?
To become a graduate student in sociology in Japan, you need to prepare for and take a series of exams and audits. 
First of all, you need to prepare a detailed research proposal and contact the interested supervisor to ask if you want to recruit students and whether the research direction is consistent. Then, according to the enrollment requirements of each university, submit the transcript, graduation certificate and other materials for written review. Most schools also require written examinations, which mainly include professional examinations and language examinations. The professional course test is mainly based on noun explanation and small **, and the language test may be Japanese or English. Finally, there is usually an interview after the written test, in which the supervisor examines the student's research proposal and professional terms.
What is the career direction of sociology?
The career direction of the Sociology Fellowship is similar to that of most Japanese liberal arts monks, and the main career direction is mainly for general positions in various companies, etc., or they can continue to study for a doctorate in Japan. Due to the wide range of fields involved in sociology, graduates can look for job opportunities in a variety of fields such as ** institutions, non-** organizations, market research companies, educational institutions, etc. 
Graduate school in sociology in Japan is a good choice for students who have a passion for the social sciences. Due to the large number of books related to the introduction to sociology and the wide range of research directions, it is more suitable for students who change majors to take the cross-examination compared with other pure liberal arts majors. If you are interested in the problems that occur in society, like to read and think, and accept new ideas, you may wish to try sociology as the major direction of the Japanese monk examination.
