What is Sociology?

Sociology brings the liberal arts together with skills, insights, and methods that allow students to apply their bachelors degree in professional pursuits. Any career that deals with people or communities is strengthened with an understanding of hor society works.

Sociology is a valuable liberal arts major for students planning careers in educational, corporate, and non-governmental and governmental settings. The sociology major provides the undergraduate foundation for pursuit of careers in social work, urban planning, public health, gerontology, medicine, law, criminal justice, and other fields in which knowledge of social institutions, social interaction, and the range of research techniques for studying social phenomena are needed.
