B.A. Sociology & Anthropology

... United States
... Elmira College

Course Overview

Why Choose Sociology and Anthropology?

Are you curious about different cultures and how we collectively shape each other and our institutions? Sociology and Anthropology will give you a structured way to learn about the social structures people create, called social institutions. Our program focuses on the relationship between individual choices and social contexts, introducing you to different cultures. Throughout, our program emphasizes research and experiential learning. In your courses, you'll gather and analyze data about society and culture. Also, you'll complete an independent social science research project before graduating.

And we highly encourage studying abroad. You can take advantage of our Term III travel classes to Latin America, South Africa, India, Iceland, and Southeast Asia.

What Sociology and Anthropology Will Teach You

Sociologists investigate social institutions, including family, education, the economy, medicine, and the media. Anthropology is the broad and inclusive study of human beings. At Elmira College, we focus primarily on cultural anthropology, with introductions also to biological anthropology, archaeology, and linguistics. Both fields prepare you to understand the ways larger social forces influence our individual choices.

Essential to the field of study is learning research methodology, and as part of the program, you'll be required to take a research and methodology course. In this class, each student carries out an original research project that includes interviews, observations, ethnographic fieldwork, or content analysis. These projects become research papers that you will present to the public and sometimes go on to publish in a national journal.

General Eligibility

The Sociology and Anthropology major is designed to be completed in two years, although most students take additional classes and really explore the major more deeply.
