Overview

Sociology program of the Bemidji State University combines social theory with evidence that challenges our common sense understanding of the world around us. Using cutting edge research, we discover how factors like race, gender, nationality, sexuality, social class and social inequality affect us and our life chances.

Sociology’s professional strengths include developing an improved capacity to learn new information, improving writing and speaking skills, and becoming more statistically literate–all of which are in high demand across fields including medicine, law, law enforcement, human resources, education, non-profit organizations, “public sector”/government jobs, data analysis, and political organizing.
