The program aims to create an inclusive, student-centered environment that enables MA and Ph.D. students to pursue their research interests in a community of like-minded scholars. Our program consists of scholars drawn from law and society, criminology, political science, sociology, psychology, history, communication studies, women's studies, and law. Many of our graduates find careers in the social service, private, legal, government, and academic sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"text-uppercase mb-0\"><a
