SOCI 102

About this course

This course uses New York City as a living social laboratory to introduce students to the systematic study of the social lives of people, groups, and societies. The course focuses on topics commonly studied by sociologists, including culture, deviance and crime, racial and ethnic relations, gender, politics, and civic engagement. Students will consider the ways people are affected by the social conditions in which they live as well as how individuals and groups can affect these conditions.
