4 semester hoursUndergraduateLectureNUpath SIusually offered: falltypical days: MBostonTraditional

Presents the sociological study of immigration in the United States. Emphasizes the ways U.S. institutions (e.g., federal, state, and local governments; the legal system; the economy; schools; families) have shaped immigrant integration and incorporation and vice versa. Presents theories and concepts that explain how experiences of integration and incorporation differ for disparate groups of immigrants and their children due to their associated social categories including race, class, gender, sexuality, and citizenship. Examines how local and state institutions (Boston and Massachusetts, respectively) have shaped immigrant integration in recent years.
