Overview

Sociology is a field of study offering a diversity of sub-fields and methods of study. At UTA we give attention to these many sub-fields, respect the different ways sociologists conduct research, and offer students opportunities to apply what they learn.

We offer a variety of graduate courses in areas such as research methods (both statistical and qualitative), theory, cultural studies, race and ethnicity, families, reproduction, religion, gender, work, education, and social psychology. The graduate programme in sociology at UTA provides students with a firm substantive background that is appropriate preparation for those students for whom the MA is the final degree and for those who intend to pursue a PhD.
