The Sociology B.A. Degree Program Sociology is the study, primarily, of contemporary societies, their structures, and the role of the individual within them. The Sociology Program offers opportunities for a broad general education in the liberal arts as well as preparation for further professional training in the discipline or in a variety of other areas. Graduates have earned advanced degrees in sociology, law, journalism, business, social work, education, hospital administration, computer science, and other disciplines. Off-campus internships, conducted under the auspices of the department, offer opportunities for practical experience to supplement academic training.
Double majors require students to complete requirements in both disciplines.
However, because of the close links between anthropology and sociology, completion of the requirements is facilitated by the fact that many of the courses are cross-listed and some courses meet requirements in both disciplines. The sociology minor is designed to provide students with a basic understanding of the discipline and to introduce them to some of the major subfields. Students interested in the minor in sociology should consult with a member of the sociology faculty, then submit a completed Minor Application Form. Students interested in the minor should submit a completed Minor Application Form to the Social Sciences Office.
