Demography refers to the study of populations, including the distribution, trends of populations, and the affects of increasing birth rates and immigration. Most demography programs come in the form of a Master's or Doctorate degree, which requires a Bachelor's degree in a related program. There are many online bachelor degrees that can be used to post-graduate study in demography, such as psychology, statistics, sociological theory or economics. - Some of the universities that feature online study for a Bachelor of Sociology include the Saint Leo University, Ashford University and Arizona State University. Both host online study programs that are designed to train students on the social behavior of society and the relationship between society and the individual.
- Ashford University also features Bachelor's in Health Care Studies with a focus on sociology. This is an online bachelor program that focuses on building knowledge and skills related to the healthcare industry, but it can be paired well with study in the subject of demography, as it relates to the health of populations.
- There are many online subjects that can be used toward your demography degree. Many universities offer courses in Psychology, Statistics, Geography, Sociology, History, and Anthropology that pair well with studying for a demography degree.
