Program Overview

Sociology is the systematic and empirically-based study of human social interaction ranging from the most simple exchanges between people to complex, multi-layered and multi-scaled global processes and structures.  It also examines the central place of language, a shared and dynamic set of symbols and meanings, in human lives.  Students learn both about the worlds in which they and others live and how to understand and explain how these worlds work and sometimes do not.  And they consider, based on these understandings, what sorts of interventions, through policy or practice, might serve to change aspects of those worlds for the better for those living in them.  The department offers students literacy and training in multiple theories and methods of social inquiry, giving special attention to qualitative and historical analysis.

Students in the program enjoy frequent collaboration with the Des Moines community through research assignments, service learning, and internships.  Recent graduates have gone to graduate school in social work, business, law, paralegal studies, sociology, criminology, and anthropology.  They also have found jobs in government agencies, businesses, and social service organizations according to their interests and past experiences.
