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. It’s a versatile degree designed to prepare you for a wide range of meaningful and in-demand careers.
