Overview

About this Degree

The Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work at Auburn University offers three Bachelor of Arts degrees. Sociology graduates have found positions in law enforcement agencies such as the Drug Enforcement Agency, the military, and social service agencies. Some have chosen to pursue graduate or professional education in sociology, social work, criminology, and social forestry, among others.

The Sociology major provides students a solid foundation within the discipline, particularly in theory, research methods and statistics, and human diversity.

Anthropology graduates have found positions in cultural resource management and archaeology. Some have chosen to pursue graduate or professional education in anthropology and development studies.

The Anthropology major takes a four-field approach, offering courses in archaeology, biological anthropology, cultural anthropology, and linguistic anthropology.

Social Work graduates are trained to become beginning-level generalist practitioners eligible for licensure and to apply for advanced-standing social work graduate programs. The BA in Social Work is fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Education.
