Bachelor of Arts - Sociology - General

Society plays a significant role in life experiences—peoples' level of education, their career path and income, their spouse or partner, and even their health and longevity.

In sociology, students will develop their “sociological imagination,” which will enable them to fully appreciate the ways in which social institutions influence experiences, behaviors, and opportunities. Students will also explore topics like race, social class, gender, sexuality, globalization, crime, social mobility, and the environment.

Research is a key component of this field. As a sociology major, students will develop writing, public speaking, and statistical skills. Students will also learn to design and conduct studies using various research tools and methods.
