Social

This is a recommended list of courses for students who plan to major in Social
Science at a university. Students who complete this program will be
eligible to apply for the Associate of Arts degree at WCJC. Courses that must be
taken in order to satisfy AA degree requirements are listed with
the corresponding WCJC Core Curriculum Component. Courses that are listed as
“Recommended” are electives that
will contribute to AA degree requirements. Different electives may be chosen
but must be
selected from academic rather than technical courses, as indicated in the course
description.
WCJC’s
AA degree requires 60 hours, and students should be aware they may not be able
to transfer more than 60-66 hours.
