Program details
Overview
Honours Sociology at St. Jerome's University, federated with the University of Waterloo, is a four-year Bachelor of Arts that examines human social life from classical questioning through to contemporary critical theory and engagement with current social issues. The Honours stream requires a concentrated sequence of sociology coursework, building strong qualitative, interpretive, and quantitative research skills and fostering critical thinking and civic and social engagement. Students examine social institutions, inequality, culture, and social change, with deeper specialization and a heavier course load than the General programme provides. Course delivery includes on-campus, online, and blended formats. The Honours credential prepares graduates for direct entry into graduate programmes in sociology or related social science fields, as well as careers in social services, public policy, research, and education.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Ontario applicants need an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (or equivalent) with a minimum of six Grade 12 U or M courses from a school accredited by the Ontario Ministry of Education, including Grade 12 U English with a minimum grade of 70%.

Admission to St. Jerome's University follows the same admissions process, application process, and document deadlines as the University of Waterloo.
