"Sociology Minor"

Students who are interested in studying Sociology, but are not able to fulfill the requirements of the full major should consider doing a Sociology Minor.

 To earn a Sociology Minor, students must complete two “core” Sociology courses

             SOC 1010        Intro to Sociology

             SOC 3111        Research Methods     - or -    SOC 3140        Social Theory

 Plus an additional 12 credit hours of Sociology electives, 9 of which have to be upper-division courses (3000-level or higher).
