SOAN 130 - New Majors Seminar in Sociology/Anthropology

This class is designed to provide new students in the department with an introduction to the expectations of our academic disciplines, and both in and out of class opportunities in the Sociology/Anthropology major and/or Anthropology or Sociology minors. Self reflection on academic and career goals is emphasized through work with the Career Center, developing a plan of study in both curricular and co-curricular areas, and reflective writing. Sessions are led by departmental faculty along with staff and administrators from various University departments. Student designed service learning projects help students get to know one another and consider their role in a broader community. Active participation in the New Majors Seminar class provides students with a foundation for academic achievement at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
