Overview

Recent graduates have pursued careers with the FBI, as Human Resource Specialists, with non-profit organizations, as policy officers, and have earned advanced degrees in Social Work, Sociology, Law, Medicine, and more.

The career paths of Sociology alumni are as diverse as our student population -- who represent the best and the brightest from a variety of backgrounds.

Key Features

In the Department of Sociology at University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign you can choose the major in Sociology, the minor in Sociology, or the minor in Criminology, Law and Society (CLS).

Whereas the major and minor in Sociology provide an overview into the broader disciplines of Sociology, the minor in CLS is a more specialized approach for those students intersted in law and justice related careers and occupations.
