Sociology

Sociology is the study of social organization and group dynamics that influence human interaction. The major provides students with an understanding of the world beyond personal biases and assumptions, and considers structural forces around diversity, equity, and inclusion. Students who major in sociology are prepared for careers in law, business, marketing, public policy, politics, health, and a host of other possibilities. Students learn to conduct research, synthesize scholarly information, and present developed arguments in a variety of subjects.

The Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice prides itself on excellence in teaching and on individual faculty members bringing their research interests and expertise in sociology into the classroom.
