How Tyann Luedke discovered leadership and career goals through Blinn's Sociology Program
For as long as she can remember, Bellville native Tyann Luedke, 18, has been fascinated by what makes people tick.
“As a little girl, I loved observing people and that brought my focus into sociology,” she said. “It’s just been a blast ever since I’ve gotten into it. Sociology can branch into so many different things, which is something that really drew me in.”
Blinn courses are highly transferrable, and recent sociology graduates have transferred to Texas A&M, Texas State, Sam Houston State, and the University of Texas at Arlington.
According to the Texas Workforce Commission, a degree in sociology can help prepare students for a range of careers, including regulatory affairs manager, compliance manager, investment fund manager, sociologist, and high school sociology teacher.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, sociologists earn a median pay of $101,770 per year.
