Students receive a fuller understanding of sociology when their teacher is both a conveyor of existing knowledge in the field and a scholar involved in the creation of new knowledge (and) learn about research most effectively when they are actually involved in doing it themselves.

Community-based Learning Opportunities and Practicum Opportunities 

In addition to internships, students have opportunities to learn and work in the field through either community-based learning (CBL) classes or a practicum. Offered in sociology and anthropology, these classes get students into the community either through meeting with various groups, mentoring, research, volunteering or some other kind of joint activity.

A practicum opportunity through the Sociology Department offers a combination of traditional learning strategies coupled with several hours a week of community-based learning in the field, usually working in a social service or criminal justice agency.
