The Bachelor of Arts program in sociology trains students to observe and measure these interactions, predict likely outcomes from certain situations, and determine how we can develop programs to change behavior for the good of individuals and society. Sociology graduates typically select from a range of careers that involve dealing directly with other people. Sociology graduates work for large businesses and organizations, perform community service and work in public relations.
Sociologists teach and conduct research.
To help prepare for future work and service, sociology majors are required to take five or more upper-level courses designed to develop their writing skills and thinking capacity.
