Global Sociology at Stony Brook University


Our Department provides graduate training in sociology that is informed by a global perspective. Whether a sociological question addresses individual-level processes, ideas, or organizations, there are often global influences and implications connected to that phenomenon. Students pursuing an advanced degree in sociology will have opportunities to focus on global sociology and to learn how sociological methods and theories can be applied to the study of global social, cultural, political, and economic processes.

Faculty research projects, conferences, seminars, and colloquia sponsored by the Sociology Department provide numerous opportunities for students to actively engage in research, dialogues and debates relevant to the study of social systems in a world characterized by increasing global interaction.
