Welcome to one of the most distinctive sociology departments in the world. For over 30 years we have been distinguished by our emphasis on world-historical studies that cut across disciplinary boundaries. Our faculty have expertise on every world region- the largest such concentration for any department of our size anywhere. We seek to help make sense of the astonishingly diverse and deep-seated global processes and movements that transforms our lives. We have special research strengths in critical study of political economy: hierarchies of class, race, and gender; social movements; world-systems analysis; culture, power, and knowledge. We offer our students, drawn from all over the globe, a friendly, supportive, and vibrant teaching and research environment.
