Sociology

Sociology is the study of society, including patterns of social relationships, social interaction, and culture. Sociology studies the development, structure, functioning and social problems of human society.

Our sociology program offers sociology for transfer (AA-T) degrees, and social and behavioral sciences associate's degrees and certificates.
