Sociology -- More About Sociology -- Faculty Interaction?

Sociology students at SUNYIT have ample opportunities to gain practical research experience that will be valuable to them on the job market. At times, an entire course will plan and conduct a research project, often in conjunction with local organizations. Recent examples include: a survey of SUNYIT students on their satisfaction with campus life; a survey of factors that promote and inhibit economic self-sufficiency of women in the Mohawk Valley (for the Women’s Fund of Herkimer and Oneida Counties).

Students also have opportunities to work with faculty individually under our Independent Study option. Students are encouraged to participate in a research project that will lead to a professional presentation or publication of a paper.
