Sociology Degree

Advance your career

Start or complete your bachelor's degree in sociology through the continuing education program at Curry College. Gain the knowledge and skills you need to advance in your current career or chart a new direction for your future while you acquire an understanding of key subject areas associated with inequality, age, gender, social class, race, and ethnicity.

In classes with busy, working adults just like yourself, you'll study issues in social policy, methods of social change, conflict, urban cultures, social environments and the impact on family dynamics. You'll improve your skills in critical thinking, problem solving, presentation and communication as you apply theory to practice and acquire the academic foundation for future graduate work.

Courses begin every eight weeks

The time required to complete your degree depends on the number of courses you take each term, which you can determine according to your personal and professional responsibilities. With new courses beginning at Curry every eight weeks, your progress can be as fast or as flexible as you choose.
