Pursuing a sociology major with a youth studies focus deepens your knowledge of childhood and adolescent sociology while equipping you for diverse youth-oriented careers.
You'll analyze how gender, race, and socioeconomic status influence youth growth. The curriculum covers topics like family dynamics, educational systems, child development, and youth services. Practical experience comes through community-based learning at schools or youth organizations. You'll also develop competencies for designing impactful youth initiatives.
As a youth studies concentration student, you can:
Take specialized classes in child development, teen psychology, family structures, and schooling systems.
Collaborate with professors on research projects and academic studies.
Complete an immersive service-learning capstone at a community partner site.
Access sociology-specific financial aid and scholarship opportunities.
