Sociology Online
“What’s funny is I thought you could only use sociology if you had a master’s or PhD. But I’m happy I worked and got that real-world experience... This is the type of program where the more you engage with the material, the more impactful it will be.”
You should major in sociology if you:
- Enjoy learning about human behavior and the social forces that shape communities and cultures.
- Want to understand social issues like crime, education, inequality, and public policy.
- Are interested in a career involving community development, human resources, social services, research or public service.
The online sociology degree program at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette prepares you to understand the forces that shape communities and cultures. Through coursework in sociological theory, research, and data analysis, you'll learn to examine social issues and work toward solutions.
This liberal arts foundation can open pathways to careers in social services, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations, as well as graduate study. Wherever you land, you'll graduate ready to apply research and data analysis to real-world challenges.
Enroll in January, March, June, August, or October to start at the time that works best for you.
