Overlapping Courses Between Sociology Modules

Sociology 205a/b, 206a/b and 240E or 270a/b and 271a/b are required courses for all majors and specializations offered by the Department of Sociology. When students combine two majors (e.g, Major in Sociology and Major in Criminology) or a specialization and a major (Honors Specialization in Sociology and Major in Criminology), however, these courses only need to be taken once. Sociology 205a/b and 206a/b will be counted toward both modules. Sociology 240E or 270a/b and 271a/b will count toward one module and an additional 1.0 course at the 200-level in Sociology must be taken for the other modules.

This means that students taking two majors in Sociology have 11.0 required courses while those combining a specialization and a major have 14.0.

Please note that this is the only overlap allowed between Sociology modules. The Department does not permit any course overlap between a Minor and another module offered in Sociology.

Statistics Substitution

Students who have taken Psychology 281, 282E, Statistics 135, 137a/b, 222a/b, Biology 244a/b, Social Work 205, Health Sciences 282 or the former Health Sciences 201, must replace Sociology 205a/b, Statistics for Sociology, with an additional 0.5 sociology course at the 200 level. All students will still need to take Sociology 206a/b, Research Methods in Sociology.

Students who take a full course (1.0 course) as a statistics substitution to satisfy the requirement for Sociology 205a/b will have an additional 0.5 course for their module.
