About the Department

The Department of Sociology started in June 2018. Teaching and research in Sociology started at JNCU Ballia in 2018. This was superseded by the two-year master’s programme in 2018. The department has one permanent Associate Professor and Four Assistant Professors. The department organised various programmes and guest lectures in a way to develop professional skills in the students. We look forward to organizing many more programmes, workshops and lectures to enrich students’ abilities and enhance department strengths to accommodate new societal developments.

About the Programme

Sociology is the most contemporary and versatile subject of the Social Sciences. It trains students to grasp social and diversified structures and understands social processes. It can map the dynamics of social change, decipher social interactions and make sense of individual and collective experiences in their social, historical and cultural context. Sociology is at once critical and constructive, conceptual and applied, theoretical and empirical. It embodies the best of enlightenment virtues, inculcates scientific reason, tolerance of diversity humanistic empathy. It is the celebration of Democratic and social ideals. it is the science of our time. Sociology in India is more than 100 years old with rich entrenched, ongoing and involving scholarly legacies. Presently PG and Ph. D. programmes are running through the department at JNCU.

Mission & Vision

The sociology department at Ballia recognised the importance of disseminating the finding of sociological research and training the next generation of sociologists and decided to introduce undergraduate courses in Sociology quite early on. Interdisciplinary has always been an article of faith for sociology under the auspices of Ballia University and it constantly endeavoured to introduce sub-discipline and special areas of study in response. You may find how JNCU will find its legacy and this Legacy is lived and vision is equalized in the following pages that elucidate the learning outcome Framework for the undergraduate and post-graduate, Ph.D. curriculum for sociology at University JNCU.

The scholarly and institutional foundations of the sociology discipline were laid by eminent Sociologist, late Professor G S Ghurye at the University of Mumbai. The Department of Sociology, JNCU Ballia, believed to disseminate social, cultural, moral and secular values and trained students with these values as well trained with critical thinking about social phenomena and society. The Department of Sociology, JNCU conceived as interdisciplinary and became a school of thought.
