Sociology
Our sociology major offers a challenging and acclaimed undergraduate curriculum with strenuous core requirements coupled with interesting electives as popular culture, street gangs, sports, and leisure. You’ll acquire knowledge that can help you think critically and communicate effectively about social structures and the forces that shape individual, group, and collective experience. Its scope ranges from the analysis of small-group behavior to the study of the development of large social systems -- from the family to education, religion, government and the economy.
