Overview

Students of the Sociology program of Hope College will be introduced to the major theoretical paradigms and methodological procedures of the discipline. They will also select several electives from a variety of topical courses. Finally, majors will participate in a senior-level capstone course that will focus on current issues of signiﬁcance or in an off-campus internship in an approved program.

Off-Campus Options

Many sociology majors take advantage of off-campus programs, both domestic and international. Students have been enrolled in the Chicago Semester as well as in such international programs as those in England, Ireland, Scotland, Santiago, and Australia. The department strongly encourages students to avail themselves of these options, and we are ready to review the available course offerings to determine if they can count towards the sociology major or minor. In some instances, departmental credit will be granted for internship experiences in off-campus settings.
