The Rural Sociology program has two major areas of interest, as described below. The menu on the left provides additional links for each area.

Rural Sociology Information and Data Effort (RSIDE)

The Rural Sociology program at the University of Arkansas is involved with the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station and works closely with the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service to provide rural data and information to policymakers, researchers, and the general public.

The Rural Sociology Information and Data Effort (RSIDE) is the Internet-based distribution of related reports and data presentations produced in whole, or part, by the Rural Sociology program, including the Rural Profile of Arkansas.

The Rural Sociology program is also dedicated to research and teaching focused on the social, economic, and environmental aspects of rural life throughout the world. It offers a Master of Arts degree in Sociology with a formal concentration in Rural Sociology. The program is also involved with the Environmental Dynamics (ENDY) Ph.D. and Public Policy Ph.D. programs.
