Minor in Sociology or Anthropology
A student can request entrance to the minor program in sociology after completing at least 54 credits with a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 and with at least a 2.5 grade point average in his/her major. Requests must be approved by the Chair of the Sociology/Anthropology/Crime and Justice Studies Department. It is possible to have both a major and a minor in the Department - eg major in Sociology, minor in Anthropology. Students with majors outside the College of Arts & Sciences may complete a minor without meeting the CAS Distribution requirements. Starting in Fall 2007, courses counting for the minor must be completed with a C- or higher.
Requirements for the sociology minor include:
- an introductory course (SOC 101, ANT 111, OR SOC/ANT 113);
- a theory course (SOC 200, SOC 354, ANT 405, OR ANT 354);
- a methods course (SOC 206, SOC/ANT 316, or SOC/ANT 401) An equivalent methods course in Psychology, Economics, or Political Science can be substituted, but 18 credits in SOC/ANT are still required); and
- three upper-division courses (SOC or ANT prefix only; 300 or 400 level)
TOTAL: 18 CREDITS
