An Associate of Arts
degree in psychology/sociology is an excellent stepping stone
for students interested in people. Psychology is the scientific
study of human behavior, while sociology looks at that behavior
in the context of one’s social setting. The combination
of the two fields gives students a more complete picture
of how we all fit into our world. Students interested in
either psychology or sociology as a four-year major should
be aware that these course recommendations are intended for
students who are undecided about a transfer school. Students
who have selected a transfer school should consult the catalog
of that school and an academic advisor for requirements appropriate
to the first two years of study. College catalogs and transfer
guides for many four-year colleges are available through
Career Services. |
