Sociology About the Program
Sociology is the study of social interactions. Sociology students will come to
understand the individual as a social actor and the social forces which affect individuality:
how age, gender, ethnicity, social class, and other social factors affect a
person's opportunities, attitudes, and behaviors. How do people create their
society? Small groups, crowd behavior, organizations, institutions, protest
groups, communities, and societies are studied in terms of stable patterns of
social behavior, as well as conflict and change.
