AA/AS in Sociology

The Sociology degree is offered at Oxnard College as an AA-T designed around transfer to a California State University campus. It prepares students who intend to study sociology or a similar field at a four-year campus, giving them lower-division grounding in how societies and social groups work. Finishing the degree earns a place somewhere in the CSU system, although no particular campus or major is assured. Each CSU campus decides which of its majors count as similar, so students are advised to check the statewide search tool and meet with an Oxnard College counselor early. The degree combines the Cal-GETC general education pattern with a set of major courses of at least 18 semester units. Students maintain a 2.0 or better average in transferable work and earn grades of C or better in the major, and they complete part of their units within the district.
