Sociology is unique among the social sciences because it examines the whole of human societies. It focuses on institutional and sociocultural changes rather than on simply economic, political, or technical transformations. For example, sociology provides an understanding of “modernization” and “globalization” by analyzing their impact on culture human subjectivity, power relations, and collective resistance. Sociology prepares students to scientifically study and personally engage with human groups and communities. It links individual biographies with public issues. The Sociology major offers two tracks to Ramapo College students interested in studying questions of human diversity, inequality, and social justice in U.S. as well as international societies: Public Sociology and Crime and Justice Studies. The Crime and Justice Studies track offers students interested in law enforcement fields the opportunity to explore issues of class, race, gender, and religious difference, locally and globally. Students will be trained to analyze diverse situations they may face within their future professions in law enforcement.
