Students who earn a degree in sociology develop strong analytical skills, a clear sense of complex social issues, well-developed reading, writing and research skills, a solid understanding of the nature and scope of the discipline and its historical development, and a keen curiosity about the world and their place in it.
These skills and abilities can be applied in a variety of professional and scholarly capacities. Students’ pursuits in recent years include careers in social and justice services, teaching, non-profit and community organisations, marketing, and health care. Students have also pursued graduate studies in sociology, which can lead to teaching and research careers at the post-secondary level, professional studies including law and corrections, and a wide variety of advanced managerial and administrative careers in the public and private sectors.
Below is a list of career options for Sociology degree-holders. Please note that many of the careers listed below require additional degrees, diplomas, certificates or specialized training.
