Our well-regarded faculty has research interests that cover a wide range of sub-areas within sociology. Small classes and a friendly, informal environment allow you to have a high level of interaction with faculty.
You may enter the Ph.D. graduate program in sociology directly upon completing your undergraduate degree (earning an M.A. during the program) or after completing a master’s in sociology or a related field.
