Have you ever found yourself mesmerized by watching people interacting with each other? That's where sociology starts. Sociology broadly studies the evolution of human society and how individuals and groups interact with each other. More specifically, it looks at how different aspects such as race, culture, class, gender, education, politics, economics, and other societal constructs have caused people to react the way they do.

 Studying sociology involves observing social behavior and investigating it critically and scientifically to test theories and examine how social structure shapes us. Sociologists constantly ask questions and explore the whys behind the interactions that shape the collective human experience.

 Most career pathways in sociology require at least a baccalaureate or master's degree. Some careers in sociology are criminologist, social services professional, advertising researcher, economist, educator, community services manager, probation officer and urban planners.

 You can obtain these degrees in Sociology: Associate in Arts and Associate in Arts for Transfer to transfer to a four-year institution for a bachelor's degree.
