This Honours Bachelor of Social Sciences program in Sociology is a four-year, 120-unit degree offered by the University of Ottawa's School of Sociological and Anthropological Studies in English and French. The curriculum covers the empirical study of societies, institutions and cultures, applying theoretical approaches to real-world cases and developing quantitative and qualitative research skills through methods such as interviews, focus groups, discourse analysis and surveys. Coursework builds critical understanding of social issues including social justice and inequality, ethnic relations, deviance, individual and collective identity, gender relations, international development, social power, and science and technology. The program gives equal weight to quantitative and qualitative research methods and to classical and contemporary sociological theory. Co-operative education and a French immersion stream are both available. Graduates are prepared for research, policy-analysis and applied social-science roles drawing on data collection and analysis across small groups and large organizations.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Ontario secondary-school applicants need English 4U (ENG4U) or Français 4U (FRA4U) as the only subject prerequisite; no other Grade 12 course is required. The published minimum admission average is 75%, calculated from the applicant's top six 4U/4M/DU grades including the language prerequisite. This line covers the great majority of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Social Sciences programs at the University of Ottawa, including single-subject majors, Honours variants, joint-honours combinations of two Arts or Social Sciences disciplines, and the general Interdisciplinary Studies (BA/BSocSc) credentials. Some programs in this group carry an additional stream (French Immersion, Co-op, or an In-Depth Experiential Learning Stream) that does not change the academic admission line. Meeting the minimum average does not guarantee admission where a program is oversubscribed. Applicants completing Environmental Studies without Biology 4U are advised to take a replacement course in first year.
