Overview

Our BS degree in Sociology prepares you for community and organizational problem-solving by building social analysis skills and an understanding of social dynamics.

Learn what a Sociology degree can do from established faculty experts. From involvement in political movements to experience with sociological data collection, your faculty mentors are skilled sociologists who bring their field experience to the classroom every day to help you grow.

In fact, University of Central Missouri graduates say that our knowledgeable, helpful faculty are one of the biggest strengths of our Sociology bachelor’s program.

Career

The applied theories and research skills you learn in UCM’s on campus or online Sociology bachelor’s degree program prepare you to enter the job market immediately. Most of our graduates with Sociology degrees move directly into community-level jobs. There, you work with data to improve an organization or assist the community directly through work in:

Fundraising

Health care

Human resources

Marketing

Public relations

Social services

You’ll be well-prepared to keep moving up from there. Employers say they like hiring UCM sociologists because they know how to work with both people and data in an organizational context. That — along with critical thinking skills gained — prepares you to work in administrative leadership.
