In this course the areas of specialization are: comparative and historical sociology; population studies; medical sociology; economic sociology; social psychology; and stratification. Our mentorship approach to graduate education permits each student to have a close working relationship with faculty members. Research productivity is high, and many students have publications by the time they receive their Ph.D. Students also have the opportunity to receive teacher training and gain teaching experience. Duke provides extensive computer support services, a first-rate research library, and a comprehensive collection of social science data bases. Graduate study is further enhanced by opportunities to participate in many interdisciplinary programs and centers at Duke, such as the Population Research Institute, the Center for the Study of Aging and Human Development, the Center for Social Demography and Ethnography, the Center on Globalization, Governance and Competitiveness, and the Social Science Research Institute.
