With a sociology degree, can you become a social worker?

The college I applied to did not have social work for bachelor's degree and so I decided to take sociology. However, many people are saying it does not connect to social work. Is that true? #career #science #degree #social-work #work #sociology

Hi There


Not true at all, I got my BA in sociology and went on for a Masters in Social Work. Both work hand in hand since social work looks at the total individual which does include the environment as well as the times.


Move foreard.

Linda’s Answer

Just like the other responses, "Not true at all." You could major in sociology and, perhaps, minor in psychology, but the minor is not necessary. Internships are always valuable to help you identify what specific area/s of social work may interest you.

Yolonda’s Answer

That is not true at all. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology for SUNY Albany and got my Masters in Social Work. You can major in any field and still get your Masters in Social Work. My advice would be to definitely get some volunteer or work experience in the field.
