Course Selection Guidelines
Course Sequencing for Majors: Majors are encouraged to fulfill the methods and theory requirements SOC 300 and SOC 305 prior to beginning their senior thesis. Students should note that these courses are generally offered only in the fall (SOC 300 ) and winter (SOC 305 ) terms each year.
Courses Suitable for Non-Majors: All upper level elective courses are suitable for non-majors who have completed SOC 100 .
Course Numbering: SOC 100 or the permission of the instructor is a prerequisite for all other courses in the sociology department unless otherwise noted. While 200-level courses are not “easier” than 300-level courses in terms of workload, the 300-level courses generally assume a greater working knowledge of sociological theory and methods.
