What Can I do With a Major

Major: Sociology

Description of Major:

Sociology in its simplest form is the study of society and social behavior.  In a synthesis of theoretical analysis and empirical research, sociology provides a systematic understanding of societies, the organization of social life and the ongoing processes in which social structures constrain social action yet are constantly being recreated and reaffirmed through action.  Several key themes distinguish sociology from other perspectives and identify the central problems sociologists study.
