Sociology is the study of social life, social change, and the influences of human behavior on society. Sociologists research how people interact within groups, societies, and organizations. Sociologists study an array of social aspects from corporate downsizing to educational reform, which leads them to develop strong transferable research skills and a solid understanding about human interaction. These skills can be applied to various job positions in government, law, social services and advocacy, and education.
