Welcome to The Department of Sociology at Tufts
We
are a vibrant and supportive department with research and teaching strengths in media, culture, and society; social inequalities and social change; and immigration, transnational communities, and globalization. Many of our eight full-time faculty and several adjuncts approach their research and teaching from a social justice orientation, creating opportunities for students to get involved in projects designed to benefit neighboring communities.
In addition to a major and minor in Sociology, members of the department contribute in important ways to interdisciplinary programs in Peace and Justice Studies, Community Health, Communications and Media Studies, International Relations, American Studies, Asian Studies, Women's Studies, and Urban and Environmental Policy.
Our students graduate with highly developed research and critical thinking skills that make them uniquely well suited for graduate and professional school, as well as careers in government, nonprofit organizations, research, business, and communications. |
