Department Facilities

Our classrooms are equipped with the most up-to-date teaching technology available. Faculty offices and most classes are in the Collins Classroom Center. Academic computing facilities are modern and include social science statistical packages such as SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). The sociology and social work collections and related holdings in the library are very well suited to undergraduate course and research needs and include access to full-text online professional journals.

Community organization and agencies serving youth, elderly, and other residents in need of assistance are an important resource for field experience courses and internships for sociology and social work students.

The department houses the Community Research Center, the Center for the Small City, and the Telephone Research Center, providing students with hand-on experience conducting social science research and extra-curricular educational opportunities such as conferences, symposia, and lectures on topics of current interest.
