A degree in Sociology may open many doors for a student. It can serve as a segue to a range of job opportunities in business, human resources, social services, the school system, etc. Some students might consider a Sociology degree as a foundation for higher degrees in Sociology and other social sciences (a Ph.D.) or in law (a J.D.).

The web site of the American Sociological Association (ASA) makes available numerous sources on careers in Sociology. Check this resource out at www.asanet.org.
