With our vast selection of courses spanning the arts, humanities and sciences, the School of Humanities and Social Sciences offers a diverse educational experience.
Our students work alongside curators at world-renowned museums, cover stories for local news outlets and radio stations, intern for professional sports teams and gain experience at top companies. Getting involved and making connections outside of the classroom not only makes for a more dynamic college experience, but also helps our students develop professionally.
