SOCI 2270: Urban Sociology

Urban sociologists study the impacts and consequences of urbanization on individuals, groups, and the environment. The goal of this course is to introduce students to the study of contemporary urban environments from a sociological perspective. Students acquire the foundational knowledge, research, and writing skills to observe, analyze, and connect critical urban issues to broader sociological theories on social life, groups, class, space, environment, community, and individual experiences. Topics may include the design and development of the modern city, urban cultures and lifestyles, the experience of social life in the city, housing, urban inequalities, art and aesthetics, community building, movement and mobility, migration and integration, transportation in the city, social and ecological sustainability, and a variety of other consequences of urbanization.
