在这里学什么？

Sociology is the study of group life. Sociologists investigate the structure of groups, organizations, and societies. The goal is to understand the characteristics, causes, and consequences of human behavior and social relationships in various kinds of groups and settings. Because human behavior is diverse, the field of sociology covers a diversity of subjects. Sociologists may specialize in the family, the urban community, education, health and medicine, social movements, deviance, crime and law, religion, politics, work and occupations, sports and leisure, race and ethnic minorities, gender and sex roles, or other areas of human behavior. Sociology is a liberal arts/ social science major that provides graduates with the scientific tools and the perspective necessary to better understand social issues and complex societal problems.

Program objectives

Students in the sociology program will:

• develop comprehensive knowledge of the discipline of sociology;
• understand sociological theories and concepts;
• apply research methods and statistical analysis to examine social issues and complex societal problems;
• prepare for employment or graduate school through a series of academic and experiential learning opportunities.

Career Prospects in Sociology

An undergraduate major in sociology is good general preparation for a variety of careers. Major sectors of employment for undergraduate sociology majors include: health and social services (in family planning, substance abuse, group work with youth or the elderly, recreation, or administration); community work (in fund-raising, social service organizations, or child welfare agencies); criminal justice and corrections (in law enforcement, probation, parole); the business community; and the federal, state, or local government (in transportation, housing, agriculture, and labor).

Many sociology majors go on to postbaccalaureate work in law, business, public administration, social work, public health and urban planning.
