Stanford’s Sociology Department has a long and rich tradition of scholarship and teaching.
U.S. News and World Report’s 2013 survey ranks us among the top five departments in the U.S., as well as first in the special areas of economic sociology and social psychology, and second in social stratification.
Sociology has a number of well-qualified candidates looking for positions. Please visit our PhDs on the Market page to read more about these students and their research, areas of interest and accomplishments.
