ELCOME TO THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY

Sociology and anthropology are closely related disciplines that aim to understand patterns of human social life in all their historical and current diversity. We seek to understand how people live, think, feel, and believe, not only in our own society but in all the myriad human cultures of the world.

We are a friendly group, and we welcome questions and conversation. If you have any questions, or if you just want to discuss the major with someone, call up another major, one of the Student Departmental Advisors (SDAs), one of the students on the Departmental Curriculum Committee (DCC), or one of the professors. Admissions inquiries should be directed to the Admissions office.
