Sociology Degree Program
Sociology allows students to study issues that impact their lives and make sense of the present and future, often through study of the past.

Sociology degree programs can prepare you for the rigors of law school by teaching you to think of ways to organize, analyze, restructure, and ultimately better the society we live in.
¹ú²ú̽»¨ offers many unique sociology programs for students, both on and off campus. There are many social and service organizations to join in order to gain leadership experience and prove your commitment to social responsibility.
