Sociology and Anthropology

Students explore global cultures and delve into the complexities of human existence. The anthropology program equips our students with the tools to critically analyze human behaviour and cultural dynamics, fostering a profound understanding of the intricate challenges facing modern societies.

Students discover the inner workings of criminal justice institutions and governmental processes, including policymaking, civic engagement, and the legal system through the program's unique blend of sociology and political science courses.

We train our sociology students to critically analyze and evaluate information, empowering them to confront diverse social and political issues with insight and empathy. As students explore institutions and the forces that shape society, we prepare them to navigate and improve our interconnected world.

The CJPP MA program blends academic theory and methods with applied experiential learning opportunities to equip students with the skills required to pursue further graduate studies in criminology, sociology, or political science or to pursue opportunities for advancement in the criminal justice sector.

This MA program emphasizes sociocultural anthropology, focusing on the interface between anthropological knowledge and issues crucial to governance, public discourse, livelihoods, civil society and contemporary public issues. Students can also choose a specialization in International Development Studies or One Health.

This program is designed so that students will deepen and broaden their knowledge in sociological theory and methodology as well as in one of the four specializations offered. Students will also become highly independent sociological thinkers and skilled researchers capable of pushing the boundaries of knowledge in their chosen field.
