Bacharelado em Sociologia e Antropologia

Sociology and Anthropology students are curious about how society and culture work and care deeply about solving social problems to make the world better. Typically, students choose research methodologies that most match their interests, work closely with professors in the classroom and through independent research projects, and push the boundaries of their knowledge through study, travel and community engagement.

Sociology and anthropology provide opportunities for students to understand people’s motivations, beliefs and actions. These skills are essential for any job. Our majors have achieved success in finance, law, marketing, industry, medicine and academia.

Our classes feature a free-form style of learning where students apply readings to real-life situations and explore their own topics of interest. When working with peoples and cultures different from their own, students learn how to see the world from other perspectives.
