Being a Sociologist / Week 1 / 김성희 Seonghui Kim

1. Summary
 
The reason for all most of students who choose the sociology as the major, when they have encountered the introductory course, they were fascinated by the sociology. Sociology majors learn about basic concepts such as data analysis and statistics, social structure, and social stratification. The studying of sociology gives lots of academical choices and career choices. But many of the students don’t satisfy to offered opportunity, information by school. According to Forbes, In the United States, a sociologist is one of the top 10 jobs that makes the most money. And sociologist is one of the most satisfying jobs.
 
2. What was interesting / What did you learn
 
Learning sociology and business management together helps you get a job and adjust in business. Graduate are can contributing to NGO, government or continuing their education(Field of Study-Education having over 20 percents). A quarter of sociologists work outside the academic world.
 
3. Discussion Point
Why only a quarter of sociologists work outside the academic world? I think the practice of knowledge that the sociologists’ is most important to make the better world. Which one is more important, practicing knowledge or studying and developing the study? What do you think about it?

  1. I agree with this opinion. Society must be viewed with one's own eyes in order to study sociology. Of course, it is also important to study only in the academic world. However, I think it is better to feel more of the society that they are studying.

  2. I think studying is the most important thing for a sociologist to come up with a better way and for society to develop. You have to know better than anyone to get a logical approach. And IT is a very important part of modern society. Therefore, the major we study is information and society and the modern society thinks that IT and society must be connected.

  6. I think it is important to practice knowledge that I have learned, too. No matter how much knowledge you have learned, I think it is useless if you do not practice it.
