Duke’s Sociology Ph.D. trains scholars to analyze inequality, organizations, and networks with R, Python, and immersive fieldwork. Doctoral researchers scrape rental-platform data to map gentrification, deploy surveys on gig-economy precarity, and construct social-network graphs of campus activism.
