Sociology studies all aspects of the human society, including the ever-pressing issues of social, racial and sexual inequality. Small classes and personal attention from professors. Past students have interned at Arrowhead Regional Development Commission, Superior Police Department, City Planner, City Attorney, Mayor's office and Housing Authority, Duluth Federal Prison Camp, and Lutheran Social Services.
Several concentrations are available within the sociology umbrella.
This allows students to study the area that most interests them. Sociology majors with an overall grade point average of 3.4 may exercise an option to graduate with honors by completing an honors thesis. Independent studies with professors are encouraged. A degree in Sociology provides students a broad informational background, critical thinking, research and communication skills. The vast majority of employers look for these skills in potential employees.
