Major in Sociology with an Emphasis in Pre-Law

The Sociology Pre-Law Major is a flexible course of study to help students prepare for a successful law school application. Working with a Pre-Law faculty advisor, students develop a curriculum plan emphasizing the development of analytic skills, writing skills, and oral expression. Pre law coursework in the sociology department offers a rigorous examination of the legal processes and institutions that function to bring justice to individuals, families, and communities. To complement the sociological component of pre-law, students may also take courses in literature, philosophy, political science, and economics.
