<p>According to that, you need 16 credit hours of "Humanities and Social Sciences". Can someone give me details of these courses? What areas do they encompass? Do you HAVE to take certain ones or are there no restrictions? For example, I really couldn't be less interested in History or Religion but would gladly take an English or Music course. So will focusing on certain areas only within humanities satisify your Humanities and S.S. requirement?</p>
<p>Basically, there are no restrictions on courses you can choose, but there are requirements: at least 6 humanities and a "sequence" (2 classes in a field, one of which being 300+). If you take your sequence in a humanities, then the remaining 10 credits can be used how you want.</p>
<p>Alright, so the way I see it is:
-I have to take TWO humanities courses (6 credit hours)
-In addition, I have to take TWO MORE courses, in either humanities, social science or both. And one has to be 300+ level.
-The remaning credit hours I can choose anything, as long as it's from the Humanities and/or social science department</p>
<p>HU/SS courses can be 3 or 4 credit hours (and probably 1 or 2, though rare). You've got the basic idea though. You need to take 16 credits worth of HU/SS courses, two of which must form a sequence through the 300 level. Among engineers, economics, music and philosophy are popular.</p>
<p>Yea thats pretty much it. For example, I took French (101 and 102 intro courses) as my humanities and Econ (101/102 and will take 310) as my "sequence" in social science. If you don't like writing papers, like me, then I'd recommend a similar path... </p>
<p>But first figure out what you want to dedicate as your "sequence". Then if it is a humanities sequence take WHATEVER classes you want to fulfill the 16 credits. Otherwise, if it is a social science sequence, you'll need to take 6 humanities and a few other classes to fulfill the 16 credits.</p>
