Welcome To Our Department

The Hod’s Welcome Address

Welcome to the official website of the Department of Sociology and Anthropology. In its over four decades of existence, the Department has continued to pursue the mandate to teach and produce graduates who will appreciate and understand human cultures and societies generally, Nigerian and African cultures in particular. Today, there are thousands of the department’s alumni making important contributions to global and national development in various sectors of human endeavour.

Specifically, the award of a degree in Sociology and Anthropology is designed to create in the students a wider consciousness towards the African society in general and Nigerian society in particular; and an appreciation of the mechanisms for analysing the society and understanding its problems through the application of Sociological and Anthropological theories and methods. Currently, the Department of Sociology and Anthropology run both first degree and post graduate degrees of various designations.

It is my pleasure to invite you to explore this website for your benefit and information.
