Sociology Department Newsletter

A major in Sociology provides graduates with a basis for understanding connections between different disciplines.

Sociology is the systematic study of human society, including the interaction between individuals, groups, and institutions. It provides the conceptual and methodological tools for critical thinking, which, in turn, provide insight into how people relate to one another and the values, beliefs, institutions, and processes that shape society. Sociology stimulates an original way of looking at the world and the individual's place in it.
