Hello Aspirant,

Hope you are doing great.  A Master's Degree in Sociology or a Ph.D. is required to work as a sociologist, while many professionals hold doctoral degrees. Sociologists study how individuals form cultures, communities, behavior, and organizations. They usually work for research institutes, colleges and universities, and government agencies. Sociologists normally need a master's degree or a PhD to work in the field.

Sociology can be studied at the undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral levels. To pursue a Sociology programme at the graduate level, a candidate must have completed a 10+2 course (Higher Secondary) in Social Science topics with at least 50% marks. Graduation takes three years to complete.

ALL THE BEST
