Bachelor of Arts, Major in Sociology
Program Overview
Sociology is the scientific study of social life and the causes and consequences of human behavior, social groups, and societies. The term social life encompasses all interpersonal relationships, all groups, all types of social organizations, and all human culture; past and present. We want our majors to experience Sociology. Our emphasis is on professional practices as well as scholarship, with a career orientation and experiential learning approach. We provide first-person experiences in analyzing and dealing with processes, problems and institutions of society. In a world of globalization and cultural diversity, Sociology is of increased practical importance in many career paths. Partnering with community organizations, the Sociology major emphasizes a hands-on approach to learning.
Graduates of our program seek employment in social services and counseling, management and administrative support, teaching, research, sales, marketing, public relations, criminal justice positions, and many other fields. Our program also prepares students to continue their education to obtain a graduate degree in Sociology or in other areas: for example, entrance into law school or a MBA program
