The major in sociology: organizational studies develops an understanding of the political, social and economic organizations that comprise modern society, using a sociological perspective to guide inquiry. As a multidisciplinary field of study, the major prepares students for a variety of career options, particularly in the area of management.
Sociology graduates from UC Davis have found employment in such areas as social work, counseling, education and international trade. Many go on to graduate study in law, human service fields and business management
As a Sociology major, you can choose an emphasis in law or society, social services, comparative studies and world development, or general sociology. A sociology degree provides a broad background in sociological theory and methods before moving to a more specific focus. Depending on your area of interest, you may study such topics as intercultural relations, the relationship between media and society, or issues of organizational decision-making.
