Students-Outside-Arts-and-Sciences

Faculty & Staff

As a faculty, we link teaching, scholarship, and service in an effort to provide students with foundational knowledge in sociology that demonstrates the relationship between sociology and everyday life. We also work to nurture professional development within the discipline, both for faculty and students.

“The professors are incredible and helped me recognize my passion for the field.” –2020 Graduate

“The greatest strength in the program is having professors that care a lot about student interaction and portray concepts in a way that does not directly offend people’s beliefs but still challenges them to think outside of their normal realm.” –2020 Graduate
