Book

I defiantly need to narrow my search. I haven't found too much on my research question. My question is, what are some careers with a degree in Sociology. I have found a ton of articles and such on sociology  but not a lot on careers in sociology specifically. I think I am going to narrow it by adding in another question or by adding in another word. The book I found in the UWG library was Society, Crime, and Criminal Careers by Don C. Gibbons. The call number of this book is HV6025G461973 One of the main parts of Sociology is criminology and the study of society. This book explores the different careers working with different criminology subjects.

Special Collections

I do not believe I could use the Special Collections for my research topic. I may be able to find some articles and such on Sociology, but I do not think it will be of great help. I do believe however it will help my with my Survey of World History 2 class. We have already had to look into some primary sources for different papers and projects and such. I will definitely be checking out Special Collections for my final research paper in that class. I think Special Collections is a very important part of research. It gives students such an inside look into what ever their topic is for their paper. We can look into people at that certain time period and read or listen to their view points unlike just reading a book on that time. Primary sources are excellent to have while writing a research paper.

Topic

I believe I have narrowed down my topic to "What different careers I can have with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Anthropology" . My major is Sociology and my minor is Anthropology  and I want to explorer all of the different careers I can have, how far with degrees I should go, and maybe pursue others into majoring in Sociology. It is a very personal topic and I look froward to researching it and finding out all that I can. For some of the key words I used to look up were, of course, sociology. I also used careers, degree's, careers for sociology, and sociology degree. My main primary resources is going to be talking to students and professors. I am going to try to find articles online from professors or from people who have graduated with a degree in Sociology and who have a career.
