Academic Calendar 2007
(Old Programs)

Students may complete the requirements of an area of concentration in Sociology at King's. Requirements for the BA in Honors Sociology and in any combined honors program with Sociology may also be completed at the College. Please see the FACULTY OF SOCIAL SCIENCE section of this Calendar for further information.

The Honors Sociology program at King's University College is similar to that at the constituent university. However, in keeping with King's religious character and mandate, Sociology at the College is taught as a humanistic, values-oriented discipline. An active attempt is made to engage students in issues of social justice and community concern.

The honors program in Sociology at King's has limited enrolment. In cases where the number of applicants exceeds the number of available spaces, entry into the program will be competitive; students who meet the minimum requirements may be refused admission. For additional information, students should consult the Department.

Statistics Substitution

The Department will allow students to substitute certain statistics courses (see list below) taken from other departments for Sociology 205a/b. To fulfill requirements for a major or specialization, however, students will still need to take Sociology 206a/b and an additional half-year course in Sociology at the 200-level to make up for the lack of 205a/b.

Common equivalent courses for Sociology 205a/b include: Management and Organizational Studies 242a/b, Psychology 281, 282E, Statistical Sciences 135, 137a/b, Biology 244a/b, Health Sciences 282 (or the former 201), Social Work 205.
