专业概况

在这里学什么？

The bachelor of arts in sociology provides a general overview of sociology in a historical and comparative context. It combines core courses in sociology with specialized selections encompassing such subjects as women, race & ethnicity, stratification, family and globalization. You can also complete coursework with seminars, internships, and foreign languages.

Although classroom learning comprises a significant part of your SUNY Plattsburgh experience, out-of-class learning is every bit as important. Internships bridge theoretical concepts with practical experience, and are a high priority in our department. Past internship sites have included police departments, social service organizations, and government agencies, and others. The more practical experience you have on your resume, the more marketable you will be after you graduate.

What is Unique About Our Program?

You will have options to study abroad, learn a foreign language, or get involved with Plattsburgh’s chapter of Alpha Kappa Delta, the international Honor Society for Sociology. The Sociology Club offers field trips and informal discussion with your peers and faculty, along with the chance to meet and learn from people from many different professions and backgrounds within the sociology field.

What Are My Career Opportunities?

Students who major in sociology have a wide variety of career paths from which to choose. You might decide that being a social researcher is the career for you, or perhaps working with women, children, or disadvantaged groups suits you better. Or maybe you’ve dreamed of developing and implementing a policy that will improve people’s lives through political action or government service.

Besides these career paths, many students use their B.A. in sociology as a stepping stone to graduate study in a variety of fields such as sociology, social work, psychology, criminal justice, political science, or law. The major is diverse and flexible enough to allow you to tailor it to fit your interests and career choice.

Employment opportunities for those with bachelor’s degrees in sociology include:

Administration Advertising Banking Counseling (incl. family planning, career, substance abuse, etc.) Community planning Health services Journalism Group and recreation work

Marketing and market research Sales Teaching (with certification) Human resources/personnel work Social services Social research Graduate school Law school

What causes a stadium filled with soccer fans to turn into a violent mob? What causes overpopulation and war? Do high school students from wealthy districts perform better academically than students from poorer districts? And how does society teach its members to obey important social norms? If these are the kinds of questions that you find interesting, you might consider choosing sociology for your college major.
