  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This course brings together three major areas of specialist disciplines, namely Sociology, Criminology and Accounting. The course is not intended to make the students proficient in the abovementioned fields of study. Rather, it is mainly to give them knowledge, skills and attitude related to the three specialist areas of the course Interdisciplinary II. To this end, the study of sociology, criminology and accounting is relevant for law students in promoting knowledge and skills transfer which will significantly add values to the legal practices in general and address social and legal problems (e.g., deviance, delinquency, social injustice, crime problems including financial offense, organized crime, terrorism, corruption, etc) that are hampering developmental endeavors, security and welfare of the society at large. As a three credit hour semester course, Interdisciplinary II will be conducted for 16 weeks. For ease and uniformity of delivery, Sociology and Introductory Criminology constitute part one and two of the course respectively and offered (progressively) in the first twelve weeks duration of the semester, followed by Introductory Accounting for Lawyers that constitutes the third part of the course and is offered in the remaining weeks of the semester. The course begins with the first part by introducing students with the subject matter of sociology that covers definitions, historical development, types, sub-fields and theoretical perspectives of sociology. It also deals with culture, socialization, society and law, including the relationship between and/or impact of social system on the legal system and vice versa. Moreover, it gives an overview of social organization, bureaucracy, social institutions and social processes (social structure, relationships and social interaction, stratification, social change, social mobility and inequality).
