SOC-BS - Sociology, B.S.

The Sociology curriculum has three main purposes: (1) to aid students in understanding the roles of social forces and ideas in shaping modern society; (2) to provide a well-rounded education preparing the student for a wide range of occupations, particularly those which work directly with people or with categories or groups of people; and (3) to provide a sound academic background for graduate study in sociology or for such professions as law or the ministry.

The Sociology Major at Tennessee Tech University leads to the Bachelor of Science Degree and includes three tracks: a Bachelor of Science in Sociology; a Bachelor of Science in Sociology with a concentration in criminal justice; and, a Bachelor of Science in Sociology with a concentration in social work.
