Message from Director of 电子游戏正规平台生 Studies
莎拉·巴伯
Thank you for your interest in our department’s graduate training, which consists of both Ph.D. 和M.A. 项目. Many things make Boston College an attractive site to study sociology. 我们的 graduate program has a longstanding reputation for attracting and training first-rate students with a commitment to social justice and a passion for changing the world. 我们的 talented and widely-published 教师 are committed to strong research, mentoring, and teaching. They provide in-depth exposure to the central traditions of sociology while encouraging innovative and interdisciplinary research. 我们的 Departmental Seminar Series provides an ongoing forum for exposing students and 教师 to cutting-edge research, and offers a great opportunity for graduate students to dialogue and develop relations with a wide variety of important sociologists.
Many of our 教师 and graduate students are public sociologists who collaborate with groups working for social change, and who frequently appear in the national and international media. We are a vibrant and supportive community that embraces methodological pluralism and values high-caliber research that makes a difference in the world.
我们的 department members have wide-ranging interests, and use both qualitative and quantitative methodologies in their research. We have particularly strong concentrations of expertise in the areas of: Aging and the Life Course; Environmental 社会学; Family and Carework; 全球 and Transnational 社会学; Political 社会学; Race, Class and Gender; and the 社会学 of Development. 我们的 教师 clusters page provides a sense of our leading concentrations of 教师 interest and expertise. I encourage you to look at our 教师’s individual profiles to learn more about their research and other professional activities. 我们的 graduate students do research on a wide array of topics, including: illegal drug markets; the social causes of climate change; racial disparities in institutionalization; social movements; low-income single mothers; police militarization; and the World Bank and other international organizations. Information about our current students can be found 在这里.
