Where SOC-2118 counts

Counts toward 5 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:

  • CRS 3-YEAR BA IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION STUDIES
  • CRS 4-YEAR BA IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION STUDIES
  • DEV 3-YEAR BA IN DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES (STREAM A: INDIVIDUAL HUMAN DEVELOPMENT)
  • UIC 4-YEAR BA IN URBAN AND INNER-CITY STUDIES
  • UIC HONOURS BA IN URBAN AND INNER-CITY STUDIES

Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 50 of 208 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.

Description

This course discusses the dynamics of sex and gender relationships in different socio-cultural contexts.

Attention is given, where possible, to cross-cultural studies.
