Students who are pursuing majors and minors in the sociology and social work department will cross the commencement stage feeling confident in their preparation to start their professional careers.
In the classroom, students gain an understanding of theory and methodology. Many of the courses are taught in sequence, so students will move through the program with a consistent group of classmates; they will have the opportunity to form relationships with professors and fellow students that will foster their development.
Outside of the classroom, students gain practical experience in the field through work placement and internship opportunities. Their hands-on experience bridges the gap between the classroom and their future career.
