- Major in Sociology: Twelve courses are required: SC 101 , SC 102 , SC 342 , SC 355 , SC 401 , three courses at the SC 360-499 level (one of which must be a 400-level seminar), and four electives.
- Introduction to Statistical Methods and Data Analysis (ST 110 ) or an equivalent statistics course (e.g., EC 220 ) is required for the major. Introduction to Computers with Software Applications (CS 111 ) is strongly recommended. ST 110 and CS 111 can be used to fulfill the mathematics/natural science core requirements.
- Interdisciplinary Major: Students wishing to combine sociology with some other field for an interdisciplinary major must take SC 101 , SC 102 , SC 342 , SC 355 , and four sociology electives, two of which must be SC 360-499 level (and one of those must be a 400-level seminar).
The combination of biology/sociology is an excellent program of study for students interested in medical school, graduate study in medical sociology, or a career in the health field.
- Only SC 100-level courses may be used to satisfy the social science core requirement.
- Prerequisites may be waived for any course upon receiving written permission of the instructor and the department chair.
- Students must complete the diversity core requirement through a designated diversity core, major, or elective course (see Diversity Core Requirement under Curriculum and Policies).
