法律与社会专业为本科生提供了一种跨学科的文科方法，以研究法律和类似法律的关系和机构。该计划结合了人文和社会科学各个学科的观点。跨学科的方法向学生介绍了比单一部门通常更多的法律观点，提供了围绕法律和类法律关系主题组织的连贯而严格的课程计划，并允许学生发展对法律的批判性思考法律和社会机构。对于不打算攻读研究生的学生，该计划提供了一种理解社会机构之间某些复杂关系的方法。对于那些打算攻读研究生的人来说，课程的广度应该为法律相关领域的研究生学习提供坚实的基础：历史，哲学，政治学和社会学等。对于选择在专业法学院攻读法
The Law and Society major offers undergraduates an interdisciplinary liberal arts approach to the study of legal and law-like relationships and institutions. The program combines the perspectives of various disciplines in the Humanities and Social Sciences. The multidisciplinary approach introduces students to a wider range of views about law than is generally possible within a single department, provides a coherent and rigorous program of courses organized around the theme of law and law-like relationships, and allows students to develop critical thinking about law and social institutions. For students not planning to pursue graduate studies, this program offers a means of understanding some complex relationships between social institutions. For those who plan to pursue graduate studies, the breadth of course<br>work should provide a sound basis for graduate studies in areas related to law: history, philosophy, political science, and sociology, among others. And for students who choose to pursue the study of law in a professional school of law, the curriculum can offer a sound background. Students may select Law and Society as a major with the departments of Anthropology, Economics, History, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology.
