Program Overview

The Bachelor of Arts in Sociology in the College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (CHASS) at the University of the Incarnate Word provides students with a strong foundation in sociological theory and research and insight into the nature of people as social beings.

Sociology is a social science that studies society and the social activity of human beings. Sociologists are interested in discovering and explaining how and why people think, feel and act the way they do, focusing on groups and categories of people sharing common characteristics. Graduates with sociology degrees have an ability to navigate relationships and the globalizing world, think broadly, write and communicate effectively, and work through complex problems with a scientific approach, giving them an immediate advantage in the eyes of many employers.
