The Sociology minor allows students from other disciplines to gain a foundation in sociological research and an introduction to evidence-based interpretations of contemporary social problems.

The Department of Sociology requires six courses for the minor:

  • SOC 101: Introduction to Sociology or SOC 102 Global Social Problems
  • SOC 202: Research Methods
  • SOC 352: Sociological Theory
  • Three additional sociology electives

All minors must complete the above core required curriculum with a grade of "C-".
