I chose UVIC for its sociology program. I want to continue on to study healthcare management and I found this program to combine statistical and management based studies within its sociology degree.
Course Curriculum
The course curriculum is classical and contemporary; I feel confident in each sociological paradigm and how to apply this understanding to current social issues. I would recommend the university produce more courses on management.
Fees
The fee structure is average university price; additional charges support clubs and campus movements, and the brand new gym costs less than a regular gym, at $106 for 4 months.
Examination Structure
The exam structure is very well dispersed, I have never had overlapping exams that require me to go out of my way to meditate, no matter whatever faculties I am taking electives in. There is a mixture of essays and written exams, and I have performed very well with the mix.
Faculty
The faculty could definitely use some new faces to instruct contemporary courses, as the majority of the staff is older and teaching classical courses. I think that each prof is extremely good at what they do, and have zero complaints about 95% of the staff.
