Internships

Students may elect to take Field Work Placement for one or two semesters in their senior year in addition to fulfilling the basic requirements of their major. Our internship coordinator, Dr. Rose Rodrigues works with students to identify compelling internship opportunities and to integrate the internship experience into the Sociology & Anthropology curriculum. Students initiate the process for an internship during the registration period prior to the desired internship semester.

Sociology Major with a Minor in Educational Studies

Students majoring in sociology may also minor in educational studies. Please contact Dr. Rachelle Brunn-Bevel in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology for additional information for minoring in education as a sociology major.
