About this course

What will I learn?

At ISU we are dedicated to your success as a graduate student. The graduate program in rural sociology provides an award-winning education. Graduate students in sociology develop the capability for original and creative research. Students engage in either independent or group research under the direction of faculty members. Preparation for the graduate degree is not confined to formal class work and activity on research projects. Students also work toward intellectual independence while developing an integrated grasp of the field. We encourage you to explore. The Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice offers a master’s degree and a Ph.D. in both sociology and rural sociology. Students seeking advanced degrees also may pursue co-majors and minors in these areas of study as well.
