Graduate Course Rotation | Department of Sociology

Graduate Course Rotation

This is the planned graduate course rotation for use in graduate degree plans. Please note that pass-through students should try not to include 6XXX-level courses on their MA/MS degree plans. If they take 6XXX-level courses it is better to save these for the doctoral degree plan. Also, students can enter "5XXX elective" or "6XXX elective" on their degree plans for elective courses if they are unsure what courses they will take.
