About Sociology in Dartmouth College
The world is constantly confronted with public policy issues that are essentially social in character. Sociological analyses provide a coherent yet diverse framework for examining these issues and for understanding the many perspectives involved in attempting to solve social problems.
Students who take courses in Dartmouth’s Sociology Department are introduced to a unique way of asking questions, examining problems, and viewing the world. Sociological questions explore interpersonal interaction and conflict and study the behavior of groups, organizations, institutions, industries, social movements, and nation states. It is about learning analytical thinking in the best tradition of the liberal arts, providing Dartmouth students with a perspective that helps them better understand their day-to-day lives.
