About Our Students
The students in our Sociology programs examine human interaction from a local, national and global perspective to better understand the impact of social influence on others. They develop and test theories using quantitative and qualitative methods to predict and understand how patterns of relationships and culture work. Many students pursue law after their undergraduate studies.
Learners
Deliverables will vary depending on the scope of the project. The student should complete a minimum of 150 hours with your organization.

Project Examples
Requirements
If any of your projects require the skills and expertise listed above, our students are available for 120 hours of placement to complete your intensive projects from August 24th to November 24th, 2020.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, student placements will only occur virtually.
Students can complete a substantial project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student (and company) a tangible goal.
Desired projects
Students come from an array of exemplary concentrations and specialties, resulting in a fruitful opportunity for employers to present a plethora of projects. Here is a non-exhaustive list of skills and projects that our students can complete:
- Law, government, or policy connecting companies to constituents.

- Project management.
- Understanding the operations of a law firm.
