Today's diverse global societies and technological advances have made the need for
global understanding and appreciation a crucial concept for today's college student.
The department of Sociology and Anthropology encourages students to study abroad for
a semester to learn more about the diverse social, political and economic systems
that structure our world. We encourage students to seek and acknowledge varying perspectives
of sociology, anthropology, as well as seek an understanding of themselves from an
international perspective.
Sociology majors, and anthropology and criminal justice concentrates are well-suited
