Bachelor of Science with a major in Sociology

The Sociology (B.S.) promotes critical thinking, data literacy, an appreciation and understanding of diversity, a complex understanding of human behavior, and an awareness of how big ideas (social theory) about contemporary social problems (systemic racism, criminal justice reform, climate change, healthcare) can be translated into practice (research methodology) and action (social change).

The Bachelor of Science with a Major in Sociology is aligned with national trends and provides students with a desirable skillset (data competency, critical thinking, awareness of cultural diversity) for many entry-level jobs and prepares students for advanced study in several different fields (Sociology, Social Work, Human Services, Business, Law, Public Health, Gerontology)

Successful completion or exemption of READ 0099 is required before beginning any sociology courses. A minimum GPA of 2.0 is required for successful completion of the bachelor’s degree.
