The Associate in Arts in Sociology for Transfer is designed to prepare students for a seamless transfer into the CSU system to complete a baccalaureate degree in Sociology. Sociology is the study of social behavior and human groups and focuses on social relationships, how those relationships influence people’s behavior and beliefs, and how societies develop and change. Students will learn the main theoretical approaches in sociology that explain society on both a micro level through the study of social interaction, and on a macro scale through the study of large social institutions. The curriculum for the Associate in Arts in Sociology for Transfer is intended to develop critical thinking skills, to explore the diversity of our social world, and to adequately prepare students for transfer to an upper division program in Sociology. The Associate in Arts in Sociology for Transfer allows students the opportunity to meet the lower division transfer requirements for a major in Sociology.
Pursuant to SB1440, the following Associate Degree for Transfer completion requirements must be met:
(1) Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following:
