专业概况

在这里学什么？

The B.A. major in sociology acquaints students with basic principles, methods, and findings in sociology and the scientific study of society and of human social interaction as organized in systems of social relationships, organizations, and institutions. It seeks to explain the order, disorder, and change that characterize social life as well as their implications for individuals. Major subfields offered by the Department of Sociology include social psychology; deviance; social inequality; medical sociology; and the study of the family, schools, gender roles, ethnic and racial groups, and social classes. Provision is made for students who wish to acquire a general background as well as for those who wish to develop particular interests in a subfield of sociology. The major provides a foundation for careers in many professional fields, such as law, social service administration, and business, as well as for graduate training as professional sociologists in government, business, community agencies, research organizations, or universities.

Coursework

A good course to start the Sociology major is SOC-S 100 Introduction to Sociology. Not only is this a required course, but it will give you a glimpse into the concepts and methods of sociologists use while also taking a closer look at the nature of contemporary American society.

The Department of Sociology offers a number of additional courses at the 100 and 200 level that may interest you as your work on the major. These courses give you the opportunity to explore topics like "Envisioning the City," "The Economy, Organizations, and Work," and "Social Inequality."

Tracks and concentrations

The department of Sociology does not offer any official tracks or concentrations. You do, however, have the option of focusing your electives in specialty areas. Possible focuses include:

• Work, Business, Occupations
• Medical, Social Work, Counseling, Mental Illness
• Politics, Government, Law
• Criminal Justice, Deviant Behavior, Social Control
