Online Social Science Degree


Social sciences is a program that focuses on the general study of human social behavior and social institutions using any of the methodologies common to the social sciences and/or history, or an undifferentiated program of study in the social sciences.1

Sociology is the study of human beings in social contexts, examining the ways in which social relationships among individuals, groups, and organizations are created and maintained. A degree in Sociology prepares students for careers in local and central government, industry, commerce, health, education, media, and non-profit organizations. A Bachelor's degree also provides excellent background for students who want to pursue graduate training in the social sciences, social work, business, law, and other professional fields.
