The sociology degree program at UNH will prepare you to succeed in an increasingly diverse, global and technologically-driven world. The program promotes scientific inquiry, digital literacy and cultural awareness. It helps you hone creative thinking and written and verbal communication skills. You’ll have opportunities to work closely with faculty on their own research projects, and through independent study. Perspectives, the student-run digital journal, publishes student work each spring. We’ll encourage you to expand your perspectives through study abroad in one of the many UNH-approved programs, including the UNH Budapest program, which is run by UNH faculty and focuses on justice studies.

Majors must complete a minimum of 40 semester credits in sociology courses with grades of C- or better in each course and a GPA of 2.0 or better in sociology courses.
