Hi all, I'm currently trying to figure out my schedule for Michigan State University and I need to add an ISS course. Which ones would you say are the easiest?
The difficulty of an ISS (Integrative Studies in Social Sciences) course at Michigan State University can often depend on not just the content of the course, but also the teaching style of the specific professors associated with it. That being said, there are a few ISS courses that students often find particularly manageable and enjoyable.
ISS 210: Society and the Individual is a popular choice. This course examines different aspects of society and their influence on individuals. Many students find this course to be informative as well as accessible.
ISS 215: Social Differentiation and Inequality is another ISS course that many students find to be interesting without being too overwhelming. The course focuses on various social, economic, and political inequalities, and you might find it insightful if these topics are of interest to you.
ISS 225: Power, Authority, and Exchange deals with power structures, including politics, economics, and society. If you're interested in political science or economics, you might find this course both engaging and straightforward.
Remember, the definition of "easy" can be very subjective and often varies from one person to another. Some students might find a particular class to be relatively light, while others might struggle with the same content. I advise you to take a look at the course descriptions and pick one that aligns with your interests, as you are more likely to do well in a course you find engaging. Also, don't hesitate to ask advisors or other students at MSU about their experiences with these courses; they might provide you with valuable insights.
