Sociology
Students who are candidates for the Ph.D. degree in other departments may obtain a Ph. D. minor in Sociology at IUPUI. The intent of the minor is to develop multidisciplinary skills, exposing students to theories and methods outside their major department. The Ph.D. minor in sociology has an unstructured curriculum that can provide students a foundation in basic areas in sociology and the opportunity to study advanced sociological theory, qualitative and quantitative research methods, and statistics.

- An average grade of B (3.0 on a 4.0 scale) or above in these courses.
