Why Study Sociology?
Sociology students explore the ways in which individual experiences and communal events are linked to different forms of human behavior and social relationships.
Our programs help students develop an understanding of both everyday social behavior and the structural factors that contribute to social justice. Whether you are a major or minor, we are happy that you’ve decided to make our department your home on campus.
