CONCENTRATION OVERVIEW<br />
The mission of the Behavioral Science Department is to produce<br />
students who are critical thinkers, who can examine various<br />
propositions, theoretical statements and social assertions they<br />
encounter with an analytical eye and a healthy skepticism.<br />
Additionally, students gain an understanding of basic research<br />
methods and techniques employed by psychologists, sociologists<br />
and cultural anthropologists. In addition, we seek to ensure that<br />
our students are acquainted with the fundamental theoretical<br />
foundations of their respective �elds of study.<br />
The Sociology concentration prepares students to transfer to<br />
four-year colleges or universities to seek bachelor’s degrees in<br />
the behavioral sciences. Graduates of this concentration may<br />
qualify to transfer using bene�ts of MassTransfer to a fouryear<br />
state college or University of Massachusetts campus. For<br />
current <strong>info</strong>rmation on eligible programs, visit www.mass.edu/<br />

CAREER OUTLOOK<br />
Graduates of this concentration qualify for entry-level positions<br />
in the general �eld of human services. Graduates may wish to<br />
transfer to a four-year college or university, however, because<br />
career opportunities in sociology and/or social work require a<br />
minimum of a bachelor’s degree and often a master’s degree is<br />
required.<br />
