Bachelor of Arts - Sociology

Working toward a Sociology major or minor, students will investigate facets of society, including social institutions such as family, law, work, health and medicine, and sport; social issues and inequality such as criminology, social deviance, social inequality, race and ethnicity, and gender; and social change such as population and the environment, developing societies, work and globalization or pandemics. The Sociology major trains them to become a social scientist in the core areas of sociological theory, social research methods and statistics and data analysis.

Stetson University's Sociology major provides an excellent foundation for those interested in graduate school in sociology or other social science disciplines, as well as for interdisciplinary fields such as Gender Studies, Africana Studies or Media Studies, and areas such as Latin American and Latino Studies or Asian Studies.

A Sociology major can lead to careers in social institutions such as family, law, work, health and medicine, and sport; social issues and inequality such as criminology, social deviance, social inequality, race and ethnicity, and gender; and social change such as population and the environment, developing societies, work and globalization or pandemics.
