Daniel P. Doyle, Chair
Sociology offers a perspective–a way to view the world–that
examines the social contexts in which people live. A sociological
perspective enables us to grasp connections among individuals,
their communities and the broader society. It facilitates understanding
of complex social processes and problems, and can offer insights
into how to improve social welfare. At The University of Montana-Missoula,
the Sociology faculty, graduate students and undergraduates learn
about the sociological perspective through coursework on a variety
of theoretical and methodological approaches, and topics that
engage social issues in our own Rocky Mountain region to places
all around the globe.
At the University of Montana-Missoula sociology faculty, graduate
students and undergraduates use a variety of theoretical and methodological
approaches to study important social issues affecting our local
community, the Rocky Mountain region, the nation and the world.
Special Degree Requirements

require 39 sociology credits. All sociology majors must complete
a 3-credit extra-departmental requirement in computer science
(does not count toward 33/39 credit minimum), a required core

credits may count for graduation. In addition to meeting these
departmental requirements, students must meet all University-wide
requirements, as specified in the catalog. These include: completing
120 credits, meeting the General Education requirements including
the Upper-division Writing Proficiency Assessment, and taking

Students who have not completed specified prerequisites may enroll
only with the instructor's consent. All courses to be applied
toward the major must be taken for a traditional letter grade.
Majors are expected to earn a "C" or better in all core
courses.
To earn 120 credits in four years, students must average 30 credits
per year, or 15 credits per semester. Requirements for general
sociology majors allow considerable flexibility in choosing courses.
However, requirements for the criminology and rural and environmental
sociology options are more stringent.
General Sociology:
Those students interested in the general sociology major, must
take three electives in addition to the core skills
and major content requirements listed above.
Students whose primary interest is in a general sociology degree
are urged to develop a plan of study with their advisors. The
following courses are available for consideration: 120S, 130S,
140S, 212S, 235, 242S, 306S, 308S, 310, 322, 330S, 332, 333, 334,

438, 465, 466, 470, 490, 493, 496.
Criminology Option:
Criminology is an intriguing field of study which examines the
making of law, the nature and extent of crime and criminality,
and efforts to control crime. The option builds upon the required
course work in sociology and allows students to pursue extended
study of crime and the criminal justice system. In addition, the
option provides opportunity for practical experience in the criminal
justice system through internship placement. The criminology option
prepares students for employment in public and private criminal
justice agencies, as well as graduate study in sociology, criminal
justice, and law.
In addition to courses required of all sociology majors in the
core and content areas, students concentrating
in criminology must complete the following:

analytical and practical skills for understanding rural and environmental
change globally and in the American West, and its policy implications
in such areas as rural health, welfare and work; community development
and assessment; native peoples and natural resource management.
An option in rural and environmental change prepares students
for employment with either a government, private or non-profit
agency concerned with the above topics or for pursuing an advanced
degree in sociology.
