Sociology

“Why I Chose Sociology – Concentration in Research and Analysis Sociology studies how people behave within structured systems—human patterns in a matrix. It keeps your perspective open during a formative age. I chose the Research and Analysis concentration to focus on quantitative methods: using surveys, statistics, and programming to study social issues with real-world relevance. Internship and Research Opportunities There are research opportunities, mostly academic in nature. I’ve worked with a large university survey project analyzing social trends. These roles build strong skills in regression and data management but lean more toward academic research rather than business practices. If you want hands-on business experience, double majoring or looking beyond the department is a smart move. What I Wish I Knew Before Choosing Sociology Quantitative sociology depends heavily on statistics, math, and programming—more than I expected starting out. It's worth to plan head early”

“Very easy major. Very analysis and writing heavy. Would reccomend if anyone wants a second major. Easily applied to many fields.”
