About
The sociology major prepares students to be active contributors to their communities and to live fruitful lives as informed citizens of a global society. Through their training in theoretical analysis and research methods, students gain a solid basis for pursuing careers in law, social work, business, public administration, and many human services professions. They are also well equipped to pursue graduate study in sociology in preparation for careers in teaching, administration, and research. The sociology major is intended to introduce students to the intellectual and methodological perspectives and practices in the discipline. The program is designed to prepare students for immediate entry into the workplace or to pursue further study in a master's or Ph.D. program.
