Sociologists work together in various ways. For example, sociology leads scientific research and then looks for data about the social life of a society.

For example, will the policy of providing compensation for poor children improve their standard of living and education? sociologists can provide questions and predictions about these policy decisions.
c. In the technical field
Some sociologists are involved in planning and implementing community activities. They give suggestions, in solving various public relations problems, relationships between employees, moral problems and inter-group relations within an organization. In this position, sociologists work as applied scientists. They are required to use their scientific knowledge in searching for certain values, such as work efficiency or effectiveness of a program or community activity.
d. At education field
Teachers or educators have the task of educating, teaching, guiding, directing, training, evaluating, and evaluating students. The teacher gets the stereotype that emerges from the teaching of sociology, sociology is too wordy, saturating, and the theory is confusing.
