Graduate school should challenge and exhilarate you.
If you’re interested in the field of sociology, you should expect nothing less than an academic program that exposes you to the latest in sociological thought, theoretical pluralism, and methodological breadth. You should expect to work alongside faculty who are leading scholars in the field. You should expect to have the freedom to explore the most important issues in society, to conduct meaningful research, and to gain the theoretical and practical skills that will prepare you for your postdoctoral career.
At Michigan Sociology, you will have access to these features and so much more. You will learn with and work alongside a diverse community of scholars who are exceptionally bright, intellectually curious, and deeply committed to the study of sociology and how it can impact our future and improve the world we live in. You will also have access to strong departmental and administrative support to help you along the way.
See why our program is considered one of the best Sociology PhD programs in the country and apply!
