Study Abroad Exchange Program

The Sociology Department has an ongoing exchange program with the University of Surrey, Guildford England.

Each year the department selects two Sociology majors to participate in this program. The students who are selected receive full one-year tuition scholarships.

To be eligible for the exchange you must be entering your junior year with a 3.0 overall GPA, preferably a 3.2 GPA in Sociology, and a willingness to study in Britain for a full year.

The Sociology Department at a Glance!

The Department of Sociology at the University of Maryland College Park is pleased to offer training in a rich sociological tradition grounded in theory and methodology for our Bachelors of Arts degree program. The undergraduate major requirements support our student learning outcomes:

1. Explain the sociological perspective, broadly defined, use sociological theory to explain social problems and issues, make theoretically informed recommendations to address current social problems, and demonstrate the utility of the sociological perspective for their lives.

2. Demonstrate the ability to interpret, locate, evaluate, generate and use sociologically relevant data to test hypotheses and draw evidence-based conclusions.

3. Integrate sociological theory, research, and data in order to assess various explanations of social phenomena and to assess social policy.

This program versatility and the rich experiential learning possibilities of the Washington metropolitan area combine to make the sociology curriculum valuable preparation for a career choice.
