Program description
Gain a thorough understanding of human nature to provide the groundwork for ideas that have the potential to transform lives and impact society. Sociology examines how social interactions and systems influence people's lives. With an emphasis on relationships between individuals, groups, organizations, and cultures, students pursuing this Bachelor of Arts major acquire a thorough understanding of society's history, roles, and issues. Graduates leave with good interviewing skills, well-honed writing talents, and an understanding of both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies. While some students utilize a sociology degree as a springboard for graduate study as a professional sociologist in research organizations or educational institutions, many use it as the foundation for careers in law, medicine, or social services.
