The Social Sciences or Applied Sociology are gateway majors – they provide a content that leads to scholarship or careers across many related fields…students go into law, social work, education, business, community planning and urban development, among others. Community Sociology is distinguished from traditional theoretical Sociology by a framework of analysis for understanding how groups form and function as communities and how social habits evolve and influence community development. Our 120 credit online program emphasizes professional practices as well as scholarship, with a career orientation and experiential learning approach. We provide first-person experience in analyzing and dealing with processes, problems and institutions of modern society.
