Overview

Sociology at The University of Akron will provide you with the lens to see and understand the world — including the interconnectedness of social institutions, inequality and social change — with greater clarity. It challenges us to see each side of a problem and work to make a real difference.

Sociology also provides you with the tools to work effectively in our complex and changing social world — especially the ability to think and write critically. These skills are essential for understanding social behavior and navigating social networks in the workplace and beyond.

You will learn to analyze data, work collaboratively, and communicate complex ideas and findings to various audiences, using a range of platforms and methods, including:

individual and team-based presentations
scientific writing
social media
research reports and papers
surveys and questionnaires
focus groups
field observations
one-on-one interviews

You will also work in diverse teams to deeply understand complex social problems in sectors such as business, science, government, entertainment, education, criminal justice, law and health care.
