[Subject & Grade] Australian Society Credit [Subject Information] In this course students should be able to learn to use sociological perspectives and techniques to analyse some of the main characteristics of Australian society. Students should be able to analyse what it means to be an Australian in a globalising world; the historical and ethnic underpinnings of this sense of self; and differences between urban and rural contexts. Topics covered include food consumption, tourism, sport and deviance, with a focus on how these things embody and reinforce major social differentiations such as gender and class. [My Comments] 
My introduction to sociology subject helped me with this course, that had an Australian focus. This subject was also the first subject that I completed at CQU, and I had to learn real discipline with time management. Prior to CQU, I had been attending UWS as an internal student, which meant lectures and tutorials for each subject each week. At CQU I was an external student and at times this was quite isolating.
