Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Sociology] From University of Wisconsin - Parkside

Sociology is the scientific study of people in a social context. It examines the forces and factors that unite us in our shared experiences, perspectives, values, beliefs, and behaviors. The field explores such topics such as how technology as a part of our shared culture plays a role in both bringing us together and in isolating us. Sociology is also about the study of what divides us. The field looks at the intersection of race, class, gender, education, and what role they play in wealth and poverty, in prejudice and discrimination, in crime, law, and deviance.

Parkside's Sociology curriculum includes an understanding of theories and methods used by sociologists, as well as substantive areas to which these theories and methods are applied, allows for pursuit of a major or a minor, and it offers a variety of certificates that will make you well rounded for a successful 21st century career.
