The department of Sociology aspires to continue and to further enhance the discipline with local and global communities by developing and providing a curriculum that is both rigorous and relevant to a variety of social settings and issues. We hope to attract more of the best and brightest students as we prepare them for their future careers and lives as responsible citizens.
The mission of the department of sociology is to promote scientific understanding of social life through teaching and field research by providing rigorous training in disciplinary methods and theories coupled with a diversity of educational experiences; we develop robust sociological imaginations and critical thinking in our students.
