The major in sociology is intended to serve as
preparation for careers in teaching, delivery and administration
of social and health services, urban and environmental
studies, law, government service at local, state and federal
levels and related occupations. The major also provides training for advanced graduate work in sociology, social work and
other social sciences. Sociology is also recommended as a
second major or minor for students of all other social sciences;
for business; for the humanities; especially literature and theatre arts; for ethnic and area studies; for journalism and other
various applied arts and sciences.
Students interested in sociology may also wish to consider the liberal studies major with a concentration in sociology. The Liberal Studies program is discussed elsewhere in the Catalog. Detailed information about the concentration may be obtained from the Sociology Department Office. Sociology courses are suitable for fulfilling general education or elective requirements for students of other majors. However, lower division courses selected to fulfill the requirements of the major may not also be used to fulfill the requirements of any General Education category. |
