Hi,

This is my first time on this site. I am hoping someone will be able to provide me with advice on getting a masters in sociology. I have a Bachelors in Marketing from JMU in 2002, but I want to study consumer behavior as it relates to market research and targeting. I am totally intested in the study of human behavior and the whys? I love studying other cultures too.

Any recommendations on where to apply, etc?

Thanks!

Given your interests, a Master of Arts in Industrial/Organizational Psychology (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_and_organizational_psychology) may be a better match for you. The Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology is the professional organization for the field. If you look at the bottom of this page (http://www.siop.org/studentdefault.aspx), there are links where you can get information on graduate programs.
