Students majoring in any discipline may choose to minor in sociology, which allows them to build a concentration in a behavioral science that enhances the marketability of their degree and prepares them for graduate school. Sociology provides an excellent background for the development of careers in law, journalism, social services, recreation, counseling, and business.

Students must complete 18 hours of sociology courses. No more than nine of these hours may count toward your major(s). A minimum grade of “C” is required for all courses in the minor. Courses taken on a pass/no-credit basis are not applicable. Any variation from the described program requires advisor and chair approval. Students are encouraged to take MATH 1500, Principles of Statistics.
