Sociology combines social relevance with the rigor of a scientific discipline.
Sociology s subject matter is human association and all that it produces, including culture, technology, and society itself. Students who are curious about the social influences on human behavior or are interested in social services are often attracted to sociology. Sociology is relevant to any occupation that involves working with people rather than things. Students may declare a major in Sociology as late as fall semester of their junior year. Special interests and needs may be accommodated through the advising process.
