Amanda Naseri, BA in Sociology (2022)

Much like a lot of you reading this right now, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, but I knew that I wanted to help people. I had tried many different disciplines that led me to find Sociology at KPU, which I am so incredibly thankful for. Studying sociology truly allowed me to learn more about the world and the way it works. It has helped to deepen my empathy for others and learn about the role that I have both in my own life - at the micro level, and in society - at the macro level. 

The Sociology instructors at KPU are some of the most compassionate instructors and have enjoyable classes I have taken in post-secondary. They truly care about their students, not only in the academic world, but at the personal level as well. The small class sizes and polytechnic approach to learning allowed me to dive into topics that I care about and approach topics from many different lenses. I am so grateful to have completed my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology at KPU and have begun my MA in Counselling Psychology.
