Summary: The Sociology Program supports basic research on all forms of human social organization – societies, institutions, groups and demography – and processes of individual and institutional change. The Program encourages theoretically focused empirical investigations aimed at improving the explanation of fundamental social processes. Included is research on organizations and organizational behavior, population dynamics, social movements, social groups, labor force participation, stratification and mobility, family, social networks, socialization, gender roles, and the sociology of science and technology.
The Program supports both original data collection, secondary data analysis, theoretically grounded projects, and innovations and improvements for data collection and analysis. The doctoral awards defray costs associated with conducting research.
