ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

Sociology, as a scientific and systematic study of social groups, communities and societies, allows us to understand how we shape society and how we are shaped by society. Sociologists study social relations, interactions, culture, institutions, power, agency and social movements through a critical perspective. Our department's sociology program provides an overview of social life and social change while delving thoroughly into selected topics such as class, gender, ethnicity and social inequalities, as well as development, urbanization, rurality, and environmental problems.  Our students explore social theories and research methods, as well as participate in fieldwork to gain advanced research skills in both quantitative and qualitative methodologies that they use in their own projects. We prepare students for a variety of careers in the social sciences, including political science, media, criminology, psychology and sociology, as well as providing a solid basis for careers in research and development, teaching, consulting, social work, community building and social policy planning.
