What SNHU Graduates are Saying
Kierra Coxwell '21
"Graduate schools have said I’m an excellent candidate and that SNHU has done a great job. This degree has given me a leg up when applying to grad schools. I have been accepted into every program I have considered."
Courses & Curriculum
The online bachelor's in sociology covers major theoretical perspectives and emphasizes the use of sociology to understand social inequalities. The degree courses at SNHU provide you with a background in world civilizations – from prehistory through current day – and a wide breadth of sociological studies to give you a well-rounded education.
Examining patterns in areas such as class, gender, race, policy and institutions, your newfound sociological perspective will enable you to map the patterns in order to better understand social interaction. As you learn about religion, cultures, stereotypes and the relationship of social behavior to social conditions, you’ll be able to identify the needs of a particular community. With your degree in sociology, your ideas and efforts could make you an integral part of programs enacted to positively affect marginalized groups.
"Sociological Perspectives (SOC-325) has stood out to me the most," said Kierra Coxwell '21. "Not only is this a course I can use in daily life, but I find I use it academically as well. It has opened my eyes to different perspectives and issues we may come across, which makes it easier to understand all scenarios and people's reactions to them."
Coursework for the online sociology degree program includes a host of assignments that make abstract concepts applicable to real-world issues, including field experience and a capstone project.
Classes are taught by instructors with sociology experience, meaning you're gaining added value from the information they can provide.
"All the instructors that I had were wonderful," said Kristin Baringer '21. "They were knowledgeable and helpful....The instructors were so helpful and easy to get a hold of. You knew exactly what was expected of you."

BA in Sociology | ||
GEO 200 | World Geography | This course examines the implications of global location and topography for the people of planet Earth. Students will explore how geography shapes the dynamics of human societies, with an emphasis on the geoenvironmental, geopolitical, and geosocial phenomena that help to define the modern world. |
PHL 230 | Religions of the World | This course reviews the emergence of various belief systems and their differences and similarities. Students explore the role of religious belief in the course of human history. Whenever possible, speakers representing various religions are invited to the class. Special emphasis is given to the five major religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. |
SCS 224 | Social Science Research Methods | This course offers a broad introduction to research methods in the social sciences, including surveys, case studies, experiments, and quasi-experiments. Students learn to spot design flaws in research intended to generate scientifically sound conclusions about social phenomena, and to evaluate critically the interpretations of social science research results by third-party observers, such as reporters. Students also learn how to draft a research proposal that would satisfy the requirements of peer review within the community of professional social scientists. |
SCS 444 | Capstone Colloquium | This colloquium serves as the capstone course for students in the sociology, law and politics, and environmental management majors. Students learn from their instructor and from each other as they apply the knowledge and skills acquired in their other course work to a directed research project in the appropriate discipline or field. |
SOC 112 | Introduction to Sociology | Is one's identity individually or socially constructed? Are all stereotypes invalid or can there be value in generalizations? Is globalization widening the gaps or homogenizing the world? In this course, students will grapple with these essential questions in examining the world through the lens of a sociologist. Sociology offers an empirically-based methodology for critically evaluating society-from issues of individual agency to the roots of global institutions. Culture, norm stratification, systems, structure, social institutions, social change, the organization of social behavior and its relationship to society and social conditions are emphasized. Students will challenge their own preconceived notions and evaluate these constructs in terms of their relevancy to contemporary issues and problems. |
SOC 213 | Sociology of Social Problems | Students in this course analyze contemporary social problems in America and other societies. Issues include economic limitations, class and poverty, race and ethnic relations, sexism, ageism, and environmental and population concerns. |
SOC 317 | Sociology of the Family | This course is a sociological examination of the family institution in America and other societies. Traditional and nontraditional family patterns are studied to provide students with a structure for understanding sex, marriage, family and kinship systems. Offered every other year. |
SOC 325 | Sociological Perspectives | Sociology is the study of social life and behavior. Sociologists study societies by researching social groups, patterns, interactions, and institutions. We are interested in how they work, how they change, and their connection to people's lives. This course will build on what students learned in SOC-112 Introduction to Sociology. It will engage students in a discussion of what we know theoretically in the discipline of sociology through the work of key "voices" in the sociological tradition. The course intends to cultivate your ability to see social things with the hope that, as Peter Berger states, "things are not what they seem". In other words, in this class students will learn to rethink assumptions about social facets of society that are commonly taken for granted. |

Frequently Asked Questions
What is sociology?
In the simplest terms, sociology is the study of social life, social change and the social causes and consequences of human behavior. The American Sociological Association (ASA) describes a sociologist as someone who investigates the structure of groups, organizations and societies and how people interact within these contexts.2
Dr. Carolyn Paul, a sociologist and faculty member at SNHU, said that sociology is a field of study not well understood and often confused with psychology.
“While psychology receives a great deal of attention from the media, sociology does not,” Paul said.
A broad social science, sociology is the study of human societies and the wide array of groups existing within them. Sociologists study the way society develops and functions on both large and small scales. From national government and cultural norms to local politics and family values, sociologists analyze the who and why of our society.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, sociologists typically do the following1:
- Design research projects to test theories about social issues
- Collect data through surveys, observations, interviews and other sources
- Analyze and draw conclusions from data
- Prepare reports, articles or presentations detailing their research findings
- Collaborate with and advise other social scientists, policymakers, or other groups on research findings and sociological issues
Many people with a sociology background become postsecondary teachers and high school teachers (teaching licensure may be required). Others may find work in jobs related to sociology, such as policy analysts, demographers, survey researchers and statisticians.1
What is the difference between sociology and social work?
Sociology and social work are often considered part of the same field. But there are some significant differences between the two career paths.
Sociology is the study of human society and social behavior. Sociologists research society’s cultural, economic and political issues and work to apply their research to solve real-world problems.
Social workers typically work in mental health clinics, human services agencies and public health organizations, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.1 They help people solve problems in their everyday lives and help them cope with mental, behavioral and emotional issues.
A sociology degree can help lay a foundation for a career in social work, but most social work jobs will require additional training and credentials. Clinical social workers typically need a master’s degree in social work, 2 years of experience in a supervised clinical setting and a social work license from their state.1
Can you get a sociology degree online?
Yes, you can earn your sociology degree online from a number of universities.
At SNHU, an accredited, nonprofit school, online sociology programs are designed with affordability, flexibility and achievement in mind. With six 8-week terms per year, you can complete your undergraduate degree at your own pace.
"It feels more than worth it. I'd do it all over again," said bachelor's in sociology graduate Annie Klupshas '15 of pursuing and completing her degree at SNHU as a busy working mother. She added that she puts completing her degree program right up there alongside meeting her husband and having their first child – one of the most special moments in her life.
At SNHU, online courses have no set class times or login requirements. With weekly assignments, planning around your busy life is in your hands. You can attend class when it’s convenient for you, whether that’s at noon or midnight.
As an online student, you’ll have access to expert instruction, networking events and real-world learning opportunities. Online discussion forums within your courses will allow you to share ideas, engage with your peers and have your questions answered by instructors.
When it comes to support, our students think we deliver. Klupshas, like many other students, tried taking classes at two other universities before finding her place at SNHU.
"Every [academic] advisor took a personal interest in my accomplishments, the classes I selected," Klupshas said. "Each one of them has taught me different things and just showed me that this is what an advisor is supposed to be. They're supposed to be checking up on you, and following you and making sure you're comfortable."
Here, the online experience of students goes even further than earning a degree. SNHU offers clubs and student organizations for online students, as well as career counseling services to help you turn your sociology degree into a career.
What can you do with a sociology degree?
A bachelor’s degree in sociology can prepare you for a broad range of career opportunities as you collect and analyze data and apply your research to solving real-world problems. With an optional degree concentration in community health, you can explore national and global health trends and use this learning to help inform public health policy.
No matter which sociology degree you choose, you’ll be ready to serve the public good in a range of settings. Some available jobs for sociology majors include:1
- Sociologist: Design research projects to explore social issues and collect and analyze data to better understand groups of people, culture and societal norms.
- Community health worker: Teach people about behaviors that can improve the health of individuals and communities and provide a link between a community and healthcare services.
- Social and human service assistant: Help determine the type of aid clients need while working with other support professionals and community organizations to coordinate services and support.
- Social and community service manager: Coordinate and supervise social service programs and community organizations, managing workers who provide social services and analyzing data to review the effectiveness of services provided.
- Policy analyst: Research complex problems and recommend solutions, raising awareness of social issues like crime prevention, access to healthcare and environmental protection to help influence government action.
A master's degree is up next for Kierra Coxwell '21.
She finished her bachelor's degree faster than she thought she would, so "now I can graduate with a master's in the same time it would have taken me to get a four-year degree."
How much does a sociology degree cost?
It depends. SNHU offers some of the most affordable online tuition rates in the country. The rates haven't been raised in a decade.
At $330 per credit hour for undergraduate programs, SNHU's 120-credit bachelor's in sociology has a total tuition cost of $39,600. If you've completed college courses in the past, you may be able to save money by transferring up to 90 credits toward your bachelor's degree.
That was what initially attracted Kristin Baringer '21 to the program.
"I could apply all my transfer credits without losing them," she said, also noting that the low online tuition made the program even more achievable.
In the end, the actual cost of your degree will vary based on the courses you take and the materials they require. While SNHU’s online degree programs aim to make use of free resources whenever possible – including ebooks, websites and training videos – some courses will require textbooks.
Is sociology a BA or BS?
Sociology is classified as liberal arts, and you’ll earn a bachelor of arts (BA) degree as a sociology major.
Liberal arts is used to define a number of university majors, including literature, mathematics and social sciences, like sociology. Liberal arts subjects are intended to give you general knowledge on a subject, rather than technical skills.
In a bachelor of arts program like sociology, you’ll focus on building key critical thinking, problem-solving, research and communication skills, in addition to gaining degree-specific knowledge.
Which graduate programs can a sociology major prepare you for?
A bachelor’s degree in sociology can give you the soft skills and industry knowledge you need to succeed in a broad range of master’s degree programs.
Earning a sociology degree with a community health concentration could prepare you for a master’s degree in public health, allowing you to use your understanding of human behavior to impact local, national and global health policy.
The research and critical-thinking skills gained in a sociology bachelor’s degree can also help prepare you for a Master of Business Administration online or on campus, with concentrations including public administration, project management and leadership.
If you want to work hands-on to improve the lives of people living in a community, a master’s degree in social work could be a good fit, and a background in sociology is a strong foundation for a social work master’s degree.
Why should I study sociology?
Sociology is an incredibly rewarding field with many opportunities to make a difference. Not only will studying sociology help you better understand the forces that shape your own life, but you will also be better prepared to deal with these forces and look more objectively at our society and others.
"After taking a humanities class my first term, I fell in love with the social sciences and their purpose," said Kierra Coxwell '21. "This degree allowed me to not only learn about humans, but about society as a whole. Because I had no previous knowledge of the content in the course, I always felt like I was learning something new and exciting....Many people feel they graduate college and still know nothing. I know that I’ve learned and retained information because I find myself applying it to society in my daily life and often catch myself explaining it to others."
Regardless of what your career will be, studying and understanding society and human interactions is a skill that more people need to have. Sociology provides us with a more holistic understanding of why people do what they do and how systemic changes can improve the quality of life for all people.
Though it’s important to keep in mind most sociology jobs do require a master’s degree or PhD, the median annual wage for sociology professions was $92,910 in 2021, making it a desirable field to enter.1
What’s more, the employment of sociologists is projected to grow 5% from 2021 to 2031.1
Sociologists will continue to be needed to apply sociological research to other areas. For example, sociologists may collaborate with researchers in other social sciences, such as economists, psychologists and survey researchers to study how social structures or groups influence policy decisions about health, education, politics, criminal justice, business or economics1.
