Minor in Sociology
Why choose a sociology minor?
There is always a need for people with technical and quantitative skills—but employers today are also looking for people who can analyze, and think critically and creatively to solve problems. A sociology minor offers you an introduction to human behavior, and how we build societies. But even more so, you’ll learn to communicate, research, analyze, and empathize within the context of your place in a global society.
You can also major in Sociology.
