NOVA-MU Sociology Course Equivalencies

NOTES:
  • SOC 900 is an unspecified elective in Sociology and counts toward the 120 hours required for graduation. It does not, however, fulfill Marymount's Liberal Arts Core requirements.
  • Courses with an "SS-1" designation, including SOC 901, fulfill the Marymount Liberal Arts Core requirement for an Introductory Social Science course. 
  • Courses with an "SS-2" designation fulfill the Marymount Liberal Arts Core requirement for an Advanced Social Science course.
