Welcome to Sociology and Ethnic Studies!
Sociology focuses on the role of social organization in human interactions, societal structure and the dynamics of social life using both applied and conceptual methods. Ethnic Studies offers a critical and interdisciplinary approach to the study of various ethnic groups within our nation highlighting the history, literature, and perspectives of various ethnic groups. All of our degrees and majors aim to create a more just society by preparing our students to engage as adept critical thinkers and global citizens.
