Students who are actively preparing for life in the 21st century know that technical skills alone are not enough. In work and in life, there is an increasing need for a balanced combination of technical skills and liberal learning skills. The Sociology program at Bryant achieves that balance through a broad survey of liberal arts and foundational business courses together with in-depth study of sociology. This focus upon a practical, liberal education is the cornerstone of Bryant’s new B. A. in Sociology.The Bachelor of Arts in Sociology program gives students the choice of two emphases within the major, and two minors:

B. A. in Sociology with an emphasis in Sociology and Social Research
B. A. in Sociology with an emphasis in Sociology and Service Learning
Minor in Sociology and Service Learning
Minor in Sociology

Each of these courses of study was designed to foster a deep understanding of the sociological perspective and its methods. Coupled with an array of foundational business courses and a solid grounding in the liberal arts, the study of sociology at Bryant will contribute substantially to the skills and habits of mind necessary for a fulfilling life and a rewarding career.
