Our Mission

The mission of the Sociology and Anthropology program is to serve the University and community by providing theoretical and applied training in the disciplines as consistent with the missions of the University of Wisconsin System and the University of Wisconsin-Superior. It seeks to create a general social awareness, steeped in an appreciation for human diversity. It further seeks to provide a humanistic forum for the discussion and debate of vital social issues, to promote the principles of scientific inquiry, and to provide students with opportunities for realizing their highest potential as scholars and community members.
