Welcome to the Graduate Program
---------------------------------------------
The Department of Sociology and Anthropology is a vibrant and diverse department offering both the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in Sociology. We offer a variety of courses that give students comprehensive training in social theory, research methodology and statistics. In addition, the Department offers courses in Medical Sociology, Criminology, Urban Sociology and Social Inequality: Race/Ethnicity, Class, and Gender/Sexuality.
The graduate program reflects the historical context and today’s globalized world by examining the macrostructures and their influence on social institutions and everyday realities. A major focus of the program is the application of this analysis to issues of race, class and gender and to African Americans in particular.
