Sociology is the systematic analysis of social life.   The department seeks to expand students’ awareness of the often-subtle social structures that are shaped by groups, organizations, and institutions.  Among the topics explored are:
  • Race-ethnic relations
  • Gender
  • Stratification
  • Criminology
  • Deviance 
  • Medicine
  • Work
  • Families
  • Religion
  • Organizations
  • Sports
We invite you to learn more by planning a visit to the Sociology Department.  You can schedule a class visit and/or meet with a professor.
