SOC218 : Cultural Diversity

This course is designed to introduce students to the diversity of human cultural experience in the contemporary world, and to cultivate students’ cultural awareness and sense of global citizenship. Over the course of the semester, we will explore sociological approaches to the study of culture, investigate the relationships between culture, identity (race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and religion), and society, overview trends in development and globalization, and examine human rights issues in a global context.
