Sociology at UC Merced emphasizes the areas of social stratification/inequality, immigration, race/ethnicity, gender studies, education, political and collective empowerment, and globalization. With 11 faculty members, sociology registers some of the highest course enrollments on campus.
Our students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with nationally and internationally recognized researchers to understand complex problems affecting society.
