Within the Department of Anthropology and Sociology, students may study sociology (subjects coded SCY), comparative societies (subjects coded COS) and anthropology (subjects coded ANY). Minor and major sequences are available in all three of these areas and students may take more than one major sequence in this department. Anthropology subjects are listed in a separate section in the handbook.
SCY subjects are offered on the Clayton, Caulfield and Peninsula campuses. ANY and COS subjects are taught only at Clayton. In accordance with Regulation 9.3, students may choose subjects taught by the department up to the value of two majors. For details of major and minor sequences in sociology and comparative societies, see below. Students may also compose a general major in anthropology and sociology by choosing subjects restricted only by the prerequisites and corequisites stipulated for a particular subject; this is particularly useful for students who wish to concentrate their studies in such areas as Asian societies, women and gender studies, social theory, or cultural studies.
Students wishing to do a double major in any two of anthropology, sociology and comparative societies or a general major in the Department of Anthropology and Sociology should ensure that they complete an adequate number of subjects in the relevant areas. No subject can be counted twice for the acquisition of points or completion of any other requirement. In particular, students who may be considering a double major must take first-year sequences in both ANY and SCY.
