SOC 1000 - Sociological Principles


This course provides an introduction to sociology, as a survey of the discipline and as a foundation for other sociology courses.  Major areas of interest range from small groups, family systems, government bureaucracies, and social movements.  Significant theoretical perspectives, central concepts, as well as major contributions to the field are introduced.  The research constructions, scientific and social science methodology are explored and compared to the influences of other disciplines on sociology.  Though much attention is given to contemporary American society, comparative and historical material within a global context is also included.
