社会学 is the scientific study of individuals, groups, and society. The scope of this academic discipline is vast, which is why sociology has a great deal to offer, especially in our increasingly connected world in which we live.
课程 在社会学 focus on the many ways in which social factors influence our lives. Some classes examine social institutions, such as family, peer, and religious institutions.
Others look at the ways in which poverty and wealth are distributed across society, influencing families across generations. Still other courses explore the often subtle ways in which our culture impacts everyday lives in areas such as health, 教育, and even the social media we consume.
While the subject areas covered are diverse, foundational to the 社会学 program at St. Bonaventure University is a belief in the basic dignity of every human being. 此外, the department offers to its students an orientation of self in relation to others and to basic social institutions, including the family, church and state as well as the economic, 教育al and governmental processes within a global framework.
A key strength of our sociology program is that it positions students to graduate with a degree that enables them to pursue employment along various career paths. Some of these include work in social services, 作为顾问, 管理, 作为老师, and in marketing firms. Find out more about what people are doing with a Bachelor's Degree 在社会学.
Other graduates choose to continue their 教育, pursing a variety of master level and even terminal degree programs.
There is no better way to study individuals, groups and society than by going out into the world around you. Learn more about experiential learning opportunities on our main 社会学 & 犯罪学 网页.
