Social Sciences Collegiate Division

The social sciences examine human phenomena at a number of levels: from that of the thinking and feeling individual, through those of economic, political, and cultural systems, to the level of large-scale societies and their relations.

The Division offers five yearlong general education sequences that introduce modes of discourse and analysis that deal with human phenomena. Students explore writings that exhibit central concepts, theories, and modes of inquiry that form the foundation for work in the social sciences. The Division also sponsors general education sequences on the major civilizations of the world. Its concentration programs include both traditional disciplines and interdisciplinary fields of study.
