Sociology

Bachelor of Science

The Sociology program at CSP is a highly dynamic and relational field that explores today’s changing world. It’s a degree designed so that you can help address modern challenges and impact the community in which you live.

You will explore the historical, modern, and current approaches to matters affecting society and possible remedies through direct engagement and policy. Not only will you explore aspects of sociology from an academic approach, but you’ll also have the opportunity to engage with organizations and practitioners in the field through practicums and internships.

The BS in Sociology program supports students who are aiming toward entering a sociological human service profession, and will also refine the skills of students who may already be established in their careers. Coursework is specifically designed to allow for students to formalize their career goals and create a personalized capstone portfolio, setting them apart from other job-seekers in their fields.

Areas of opportunity to work in include mental health, family crisis, people with addiction, working with those experiencing homelessness, felon re-entry, racial and economic inequality, and many more. Those areas are extremely relevant in any human services field, such as social services, human resources, counseling, law enforcement, and more.
