General Information

The Department of Sociology and Anthropology offers the following undergraduate programs:

B.A. (Honours) in Anthropology

B.A. (Honours) in Sociology

B.A. in Sociology-Anthropology

The B.A.(Honours) programs can be taken either as principal areas of study or in combination with other disciplines. Details of all the above programs are outlined below.

The several types of courses offered by the Department are indicated by the following numerical prefixes:

53 Sociology

54 Anthropology

Provided they meet the requirements of the particular program for which they are registered, students may select their courses from any or all of these.

Students may take both Sociology 53.100 and Anthropology 54.100 for credit, but only one will be included in the calculation of the Sociology-Anthropology GPA; the other will count toward the maximum credits permitted in Sociology-Anthropology. If Sociology-Anthropology 56.100 is taken, Sociology 53.100 or Anthropology 54.100 may not be taken for credit.

Mention: français

Students who wish to qualify for the "Mention: français" notation in Sociology-Anthropology may do so by taking the following pattern of courses in their degree program:

1. 1.0 credit in the advanced study of the French language (French 20.160).
