A message from the
Director
The Graduate Program in Sociology is located in
Bird House, one of the stops along VCU's
Historic Buildings Tour. Today, it houses faculty with wide ranging interests and expertise,
provides office space for Graduate Teaching Assistants, includes a graduate
area , and is the site where graduate seminars are taught. The intimate setting and
supportive environment enhance students' personal growth and intellectual development. A rigorous
sequence of theory, statistics and research methods courses provides students with
practical skills and
abilities that are widely applicable. Substantive seminars, grouped around themes of globalization,
the urban environment, social problems, and social change, prepare graduates to meet the
challenges of the 21st century...
This website provides the most current and comprehensive information
available on our Master's program.
The departmental Graduate Student Handbook describes various degree options and course
requirements and provides a flow chart for each option. Students interested in applied research will
find information on recent applied projects useful. While these program resources
are important, our
'human resources' are equally so. Please take the opportunity to visit our student pages. Find out
about the activities, research interests, and thesis topics of our graduate students, past and present.
Additional information on our faculty and department is available on the
Sociology Department Website.
The site also provides
links to information on the application process, in-state and
out-of-state tuition rates, and student fees. Application forms for U.S.
citizens and International students may be downloaded directly from the site.
For the most
comprehensive source of information on financial aid, tuition, university policies, and
graduate student resources, students are encouraged to visit the School of Graduate
Studies [linked at right].
If you have any questions about our graduate program or would like to arrange a visit to
Bird House, please contact me for further information.
Regards,
David Bromley
