| The Sociology curriculum is designed to develop students’ “sociological imagination,” an ability to analyze social situations in sociological terms and thereby to become capable of better understanding themselves and the behavior of others in the context of their society. Such understanding enables students to better cope with the social forces operating to stabilize and change social conditions. Graduates with a Sociology major have entered a variety of careers, including social service, business, labor, government, and criminal justice, and some elect to pursue graduate studies. In addition, students may complete a Sociology minor. |
