SOCY 4480 - Senior Capstone


Credit Hours: 3
This course serves as a culminating experience for the undergraduate study in sociology. It is designed to help students synthesize what they have learned in sociology and make the transition to the next stages of their lives. This will be achieved through two related activities. First, students will build on previous coursework in theory and research methods to create an original, article-length research paper analyzing sociological data. Second, students will investigate recent trends in the economy and labor market, collect data on an occupation they are planning to pursue after graduation, and interview people working in that field. Students should end this senior seminar with a sense of pride in what they have accomplished as sociology majors and a clearer vision for their future career.

Prerequisite(s): SOCY 3370 - Concepts of Survey Design  and SOCY 3395 - Sociological Theory
