Doctor
of Sociology (PhD, D.Sc)
School of Social and Human
Studies
Atlantic International University
The Doctor of Sociology (PhD, D.Sc)
focuses on the systematic study of human
social institutions and social relationships.
The program will help students develop core
strategic areas of required expertise such
as social stratification and hierarchies,
family structures, social theory, sociological
research methods, social organization and
structure, dynamics of social change, social
deviance and control, and applications to
the study of specific social groups, social
institutions, and social problems. The Sociology
program is designed to advance the professional
development of experienced sociology graduates
and professionals in the sociology arena
by extending their knowledge and equipping
them with broad research and process sociology
skills, enabling them to make a key leadership
contribution to their chosen fields.
AIU’s Doctorate degree in Sociology
goes one step further by allowing students
to study and research multiple key areas
of computer science to develop a unique
foundation of practical knowledge and computer
science theory.
Your AIU Distance Learning Doctorate program
in Sociology will be a custom-made program,
designed just for you by you and your advisor.
This flexibility to meet your needs is seldom
found in other distance learning programs.
Our program does not require every student
to study the same subjects and use the same
books and other learning materials as every
other student. Instead our online Doctoral
programs are designed just for you. They
are individually designed to meet your needs
and help you to reach your professional
and personal goals.
