药学出国申社会学可行么？

LouisaKingUID: 2465047

想申请2011fall
对人文学科的兴趣更大 比较喜欢调研类研究 对社工方面的事务也比较感兴趣
如果能用上本科的知识当背景就更好了

请问 这种条件有可能么？如果有的话，我在这一年内可以做些什么能让我申到更好的学校呢？
谢谢

可以申，但最好自己先學習一下社會學的基礎知識。建議選修一些社會學的課，選不到也去旁聽一下，認真學習，申請時也可以讓社會學的老師幫你推薦。

药学在国外可是很有“钱”途的。。。。相反社会学倒是不咋地。。。。

药学转社会学不是很可惜吗。。。

I don't know very well what medicine is about, but if you have some general knowledge in etiology or social epidemiology, then sociology of health, which is my research area, is a pretty good match to you.  In addition, some basic idea about stats or biostats is also preferable.
One of the fast growing branch in sociology in recent years is to combine gene studies and sociology theory to fully understand why people get diseased and why some not others. It's a pretty interesting area and is indeed interdisciplinary, which I think is also very promising in uncover many mechanisms. UNC and Duke are very strong in this regard.
