BA Sociology

When policies and practices cause harm in our communities, sociologists seek to understand and change the social conditions that cause it – especially for communities of color, immigrants, poor families, women, youth, and LGBTQ+ individuals. As a sociology major, you can help make this change, too.

Through our hands-on curriculum, you’ll study how people relate to one another and why they thrive—or struggle—under different societal conditions. By learning to ask important questions about human behavior, social inequalities, and institutional structures, you’ll develop the skills to solve problems, embrace diversity, and think globally.
