2016-17 Catalog [ARCHIVED CATALOG]
Sociology and Anthropology, BA or BS
|
|
The Sociology and Anthropology program honors the shared intellectual foundations and inquiry of two distinct disciplines. Our curriculum emphasizes an appreciation of diversity and a critical, historical, and comparative perspective of our social world. Students develop the analytic skills and research techniques for understanding identity, behavior, culture, power, and social change. Students engage in learning in and out of the classroom to prepare for a wide range of careers and graduate education.
