Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Programs of Study

Sociology is the scientific study of social interaction and society. The sociological perspective enables students to understand how broader social forces, including cultural norms, social inequalities, and social structure, shape human experience. Sociologists employ varied theoretical perspectives and research methods to understand, generalize, and predict behavior, interaction, and institutional organization. Specifically, sociologists examine social order, social conflict and inequalities, and the cultural assignment of meaning to objects, relationships, and events in everyday life. The discipline is committed to building relations of social justice and equity across social groups, social institutions, and societies around the world.
