Neighborhoods, cities, and metropolitan areas are communities defined by geographic, economic, legal, political, cultural, and social boundaries. This concentration allows students to advance their knowledge on the intersection of these elements, the impact they have on populations and what is considered a "market," and the resulting economic impact on a global scale.

SOCI 0007 - The Future of Work - First Year Seminar
SOCI 0008 - Work and Careers in the 21st Century - First Year Seminar
