What are the requirements for a major in Sociology?
The Sociology major consists of 11 courses totaling 36 credits. Only courses in which you earn a ‘C’ or better count toward the major. Four of those courses are required: Introduction to Sociology (920:101) and any three of Introduction to Social Research, (920:311), Computer Analysis of Social Science Data (920:312), Development of Sociological Theory (920:313) and Contemporary Sociological Theory (920:314). That leaves you seven elective courses. One of these electives must be a 400-level course. Three more of these elective courses must be at the 300- or 400-level. The remaining three electives can be at any level. As you plan you elective courses remember that 300 and 400 level Sociology courses have prerequisites that must be completed before you can enroll in those courses.
