<p>SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES - at least 3 courses (9 semester/12-15 quarter units), selected from at least 2 disciplines:</p>
<p>just to make sure when it says 2 disciplines it means that I can take 2 poli sci classes and 1 econ classes right? </p>
<p>thanks for the clarification everyone</p>
<p>I believe those are both social science courses. Something like psychology or anthropology would be a behavioral science, dealing with how humans act.</p>
<p>The IGETC at my school specifies that “Courses from 2 different subjects is required,” so I’m thinking you’ll be okay with Poli Sci and Econ.</p>
<p>Well, every school is different.
I wouldn’t suggest taking other’s words for THEIR school.
Make sure you clarify with your school’s guidelines.</p>
<p>I checked the UC website and they have a guideline as well:
4. Social and Behavioral Sciences</p>
<p>Three courses from at least two disciplines, or an interdisciplinary </p>
<p>[University</a> of California - Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC)](<a href=“http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/transfer/requirements/additional-requirements/igetc/index.html]University”>http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/transfer/requirements/additional-requirements/igetc/index.html)</p>
<p>So I’m guessing discipline just means atleast 2 different subjects? haha just wanna make sure. thanks</p>
<p>It’s true that every school is different in which courses qualify for the IGETC program but the general IGETC requirements/pattern should be the same for each school otherwise it wouldn’t be a standard. Easiest way to find out, Ryan2136 which CC do you go to? They should have a copy of IGETC and which courses of theirs will fulfill each section.</p>
<p>In case any of these are your schools:</p>
<p>Saddleback: Any two subjects within Social/Behavioral Sciences.
OCC: Any two sub-areas, and then lists each subject as a sub-area.
SMC: Any two disciplines, and then lists each subject as an individual discipline.</p>
<p>Seems to be a pattern…</p>
<p>I go to SMC and Econ 1,2 etc is listed as well as Poli Sci 1,2 etc. So I guess when it says Atleast 2 different disciplines it means that Econ and Poli Sci will suffice…thanks for the help</p>
<p>@belkster oh okay thanks a lot, i guess since poli sci and econ are two different subjects, ill be fine.</p>
