Bachelor of Arts - Sociology

Sociology involves the systematic study of behavior in human social systems, varying from small groups to large societies. In addition to course offerings, departmental majors are encouraged to work in community, social and/or correctional agencies where they can apply classroom knowledge to real problems. Students interested in pursuing a graduate degree are encouraged to complete the department’s minor in Advanced Scientific Analysis.

The sociology major requires 44 credit hours of coursework. Students should complete all 100-and 200‐level requirements before accumulating 60 credit hours (junior status). Co-requisites must be taken during the same semester.
