Sociology Minor

Students selecting a minor in sociology must complete a minimum of 18 semester hours in sociology, meeting three criteria.

1. Core courses (six credit hours total): SOCI 1010 - Introduction to Sociology  and SOCI 3030 - Sociological Theory , are required.
2. Electives (nine credit hours total): Students may choose any combination of sociology courses to complete this component of the minor with the one following exception: students may NOT take two 1000 level courses with one 2000 level course to complete this component of the minor. Any other combination is acceptable (e.g., two 1000 level courses with one 3000 level course is acceptable, as is one 1000 level course with two 2000 level courses).
3. Seminar (three credit hours total): Students minoring in sociology must take at least one 4000 level course of their choice.

No matter which set of nine hours of electives students take, all minors must take SOCI 1010 - Introduction to Sociology  and SOCI 3030 - Sociological Theory .
