Associate in Arts for Transfer in Sociology

Program Overview

Sociology is the study of social life, social change, and human behavior. It seeks to understand all aspects of human social behavior, including the behavior of individuals, as well as the social dynamics of small groups, large organizations, communities, institutions, and entire societies. Students of Sociology study a broad array of topics, including social networks, gender roles and relationships, family structure and behavior, interpersonal relationships and processes, urban development, historical societies and economies, rural social trends, social movements, gang violence, current immigration issues, race and ethnic relations, and crime and incarceration. Sociology looks for what is universal, as well as what varies across societies and groups, and Sociology courses explore social change and provide a lens into the complexity of the causes and consequences of human behavior. The results of sociological investigations help develop new theories and inform social policy, programs, and laws.
