The degree Bachelor of Science in sociology is designed to provide a student with in-depth academic preparation in the field of sociology. Students pursuing the B.S. degree with a major in sociology are required to complete 45 semester hours in sociology. The B.S. degree is designed primarily for those students who intend to pursue careers in social service, law enforcement, criminal justice, government agencies, and other related fields, or who want more extensive preparation in the discipline of sociology for advanced degree programs. Students who complete a major in sociology have many career opportunities. Graduates have pursued careers in teaching, probation and parole, law enforcement, social agency administration, centers for the aged, corrections, and a variety of other fields. In addition, an undergraduate degree with a major in sociology provides an excellent foundation for graduate work in the disciplines of sociology and anthropology, social work, criminal justice, and for law school. In order to enhance career preparation, the department offers student practicum experiences with local social service agencies and internships with law enforcement agencies. Students who wish to pursue careers in social service and criminal justice may have the opportunity to supplement their degree programs with applied experiences. In an effort to provide a more stimulating atmosphere for learning and to enhance interaction among the students of our program, the department established the ESU Sociology and Anthropology Clubs. Sociology Club activities include both educational and social gatherings and all students are encouraged, but not required, to participate. The Anthropology Club promotes a better understanding of and interest in anthropological research among students, provides access to opportunities for further student education through outside resources and encourages the pursuit of professional development in the field of Anthropology.
