Hey! I am invited for the Criminology and Ethics, Society and Law major. I have not applied for any minors other than just majors. What do you think about a double major in Crim and ES&L. Is it doable? Are there any resources where I can get more information on these majors. Do you know any other students who are doing the same thing as me? Thank you so much for your help \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\nhey there,<\/p>\n

sounds totally doable to me! criminology and ethics, society & law are both areas in social science which complement each other nicely. i can’t think of anyone off the top of my head who’s done it, but i’m sure it’s a common combination.<\/p>\n

both POSts have broad requirements including courses POL, PHL and\/or ECO, so you’ll probably be able to use some of the same courses to fulfil requirements in both POSts – which is a bonus. gives you more space to take obscure interest-based courses like basket-weaving and visual arts.<\/p>\n

ethics, society & law requires 7.0 FCEs<\/a>, and crim requires 8.0<\/a>. assuming no overlap, that’s only 15.0 required courses, which is pretty typical for a double major. keep in mind that you would’ve completed some requirements in first year already, so doing the rest in three years is 100% feasible.<\/p>\n

as for the level of difficulty, you’ll either like it or you won’t. both POSts deal with similar subject matter, so if you enjoyed\/did reasonably well in your first-year POL, SOC, or PHL courses, then you’re likely on the right track.<\/p>\n

and hey, it’s better than signing up for a philosophy specialist, right? at least you might actually get a job with these POSts<\/a>.*<\/p>\n

all the best,<\/p>\n
