| The Department
of Sociology and Anthropology offers introductory and advanced courses
in sociology and anthropology covering the major subfields of both disciplines.
It also offers supervised field work and practicum experiences required
for certain curricula in the department. The department teaches students
the principles and techniques for understanding human group behavior.
Most specifically, the department seeks to educate students to understand
communities and organizations and the people who live and work within
them; to qualify exceptional students at the undergraduate and graduate
level for sociological and anthropological research, teaching, and extension
careers; to solve problems in human group relations; to provide majors
with academic background and experience useful for many careers in government
and industry; and to provide service courses to students in other curricula
and in the Division of Continuing Education.
The department is jointly administered by the Colleges of Humanities
and Social Sciences, CHASS, and Agriculture
and Life Sciences, CALS, and
offers the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees. | |
