Sociology at Ozarks

Sociology at Ozarks

Sociology is the study of groups of persons. The sociologist, as a scientist, collects data systematically, develops ideas about relationships, and produces guidelines for predicting human activity.  As Peter L. Berger said in Invitation to Sociology, "The fascination of Sociology lies in the fact that its perspective makes us see in a new light the very world in which we have lived all our lives."

As a Sociology major at Ozarks, you will have the foundation for graduate studies not only in sociology, but also in areas such as theology, political science, the medical sciences, the arts, and the humanities. You will also be prepared for a career in a service profession, such as nursing or counseling.
