Sociology
About the Sociology major
Sociology explores social life, change, and human behavior. Classes focus on discussion, group work, and writing, building communication skills while providing hands-on experience through internships, research and fieldwork.
Students apply sociology to real-world issues through internships, field trips and community service. The Sociology Club fosters engagement with local organizations through volunteering and fundraising.
