Sociology
The Sociology
program is designed to provide students with strong research skills
and theoretical knowledge of the field. The courses are diverse
and represent a broad range of practical and theoretical issues
in the discipline, and are designed in such a way that students
acquire skills for careers in the criminal justice system or in
agencies working with youth, the elderly, and families. Internships
provide opportunities for students to obtain practical training
off campus through placements in Sociology, Criminal Justice, or
Gerontology.
This program
offers Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in Sociology,
with concentrations in Gerontology or Criminal Justice. There are
two components: academic and professional. The academic component
prepares students for advanced studies. In the professional component,
internships and seminars train students for immediate employment.
The Gerontology and Criminal
Justice programs address significant and growing problems in society,
and this creates a high and growing demand for our graduates. |
