More About the Program
Sociology is the scientific study of society: the social lives of individuals, groups, culture, and major social institutions. It covers the impact of individuals on society and of society on individual. Upon graduation, students will demonstrate an understanding of sociological theory within its historical context; will be able to scientifically measure and utilize basic sociological concepts such as social structure, social change, culture and socialization, stratification and social interaction; will understand the reciprocal relationship between individuals and society, and the ethical issues and standards involved in the study of human interactions; and will think critically, evaluate underlying assumptions, and generalize appropriately.
