We emphasize the importance of critical thinking and global awareness, as well as the connections between theory and practice. The Social Sciences Division is comprised of a variety of disciplines; some of these disciplines are represented as majors, some as minors, and some as selections of courses meant to supplement other programs. These programs include:
Majors: Child Studies, Global Studies, Human Services, Political Science, Sociology and Social Change
Minors: Global Studies, Human Services, Political Science, Social Work, Sociology, Women’s Studies
We also house individual courses in: Anthropology, Economics, Geography, Public Policy, Social Science Research and Yoga.
