Sociology
Sociology is the systematic study of group life. It focuses on the forces (religion, families, government, education, the economy) that shape the way we as social players relate to one another. In going about that task, sociologists take as their subject of study such varied things as urban and rural life, work and occupations, mass media, and intergroup relations. A major in sociology is valuable because it serves as a platform for entering numerous careers. As a sociologist, you might pursue such careers as:
- social work
- criminology
- public administration
- gerontology
- market research
- education
- rehabilitation
A sociology degree also
serves as a good foundation if you plan to enter graduate school and
study law, business, medicine, community planning, or architecture. Our
sociology program also offers a master’s degree in applied
sociology.
