By deepening students’ critical understandings of the structures and patterns upon which everyday life rests, the Department fosters the students’ “sociological imaginations” through empowerment, social engagement, and commitment to social justice.Ī major or minor in sociology can provide a useful orientation for students who plan to attend graduate school or seek careers in community-based organizations or in such fields as education, human resources, urban planning, law, community organizing, social welfare, research in government and private organizations, and much more. Our primary aim is thus to equip students with a lifelong love of learning broad, diverse, and critical perspectives of the social world and relevant and important life skills that are consistent with the goals of a liberal arts education. Our faculty is committed to working with students to understand how classism, racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of oppression intersect and operate, and how individuals, groups, and organizations challenge these inequalities.
NEIU's Sociology Department offers students a world of difference through dynamic faculty and engaging course offerings that help to develop students’ critical understandings of social life through the shared power of knowledge and resourceful action. Sociology is the systematic study of human social interactions and institutions, and the social causes and consequences of human behavior. We also offer an 18-credit minor (9 credits of required courses and 9 credit hours of electives). The Sociology Department offers a 39-credit major (21 credit hours of required courses and 18 credits of electives).
