Sociology
Sociologists look at the social forces that shape people's attitudes, behaviors and beliefs so that people can better deal with them. By focusing on groups of people, individuals can begin to see what may be influencing their own thoughts, behaviors and relationships. Sociology majors often have a solid knowledge of history and policy and are often well-informed citizens involved in democratic pursuits founded in reliable evidence. They are agents of compassion and change.
