Description:

Graduate studies in sociology are designed to emphasize the connections between core areas and to encourage students to develop competencies in more than one area. The M.A. program contains a core of theory and method designed to provide flexibility for students as well as to reflect the diversity that characterizes the discipline. Individual programs beyond the core are designed to fit students' interests and to supplement areas in which they may require additional work, insofar as faculty resources and specializations permit. The Department offers two programs leading to the M.A. degree: thesis and non-thesis option. Normally, students will declare their intention to pursue one option by the end of April of their first year in the graduate program.
