The overarching goal of the Sociology Colloquia Series is to build intellectual engagement and community in our department for faculty and graduate students alike.

For the 2024-2025 academic year, the department will focus on the following types of hybrid gatherings: those in which we share our own research and professionalization workshops for graduate students. Unless otherwise noted, department events will run Thursdays from 12-1:15pm via a hybrid mode (RCC 301 and Zoom).

Suggestions for hosted gatherings can be submitted using this online form, emailed to the department assistant or sociology@ucsc.edu.
