Where SOC-2119 counts

Counts toward 2 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:

  • CRS 4-YEAR BA IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION 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.
