Sociology helps you understand how people, institutions, and communities shape the
world we live in—and how you can help change it. At UW, sociology majors develop a
strong foundation in research, data analysis, critical thinking, and problem-solving
skills that translate directly to today’s workforce.
Our graduates pursue careers in human resources, education, law, public relations,
market analysis, city planning, consumer relations, and public service, among many
others. Employers value sociology graduates for their ability to analyze complex social
issues, interpret data, and offer fresh, informed perspectives on real-world challenges.
