Welcome to the Department of
Sociology's website. Here you will find information on our people and programs.
Department members are actively engaged in research in sociology and criminology
while maintaining a strong commitment to graduate and undergraduate education.
- Historically, comparative sociology (often focusing on Latin America) and criminology have been major strengths of the Department. This is still the case, but Department interests are also wider ranging: gender, work and organizations, social movements, race and ethnicity, the Southwest, medical sociology, and social welfare are areas of great faculty and student interest. A variety of other areas are represented among our faculty and students as well.
- The Department offers graduate (MA and PhD) degrees in sociology, undergraduate (BA) degrees in sociology and criminology, and an undergraduate minor in social welfare.
