Sociology and Anthropology, B.A.

About This Degree

Sociology and anthropology students have a breadth of careers open to them, but many work in education, public service, criminal justice, law and the nonprofit sector.  They also work in family service agencies, children and youth service agencies, homeless shelters, child and adult day care centers, community-based organizations, or domestic violence programs.

Completion of this major prepares one for a career as a market researcher, survey statistician, mental health aide, probation officer, or caseworker. Continued study may include a master’s and doctorate in sociology, social work, or law.
