Social Science
Concentration in Social Science
Those who study in one or more of the Social Science disciplines may enter the fields of business, economics, industrial and labor relations, international relations, public administration, administration in industrial or service organizations, law, education, government and civil service, and journalism. A Social Science concentration is ideal if you wish to have a broad scope of study for graduate programs or plan to enter a career in elementary or secondary education.
The Social Science concentration allows students to gain a broad knowledge of the social sciences, while tailoring the course selection to those that will benefit them most in their chosen career.
Areas of study include anthropology, economics, geography, government, history, public administration, sociology and psychology. The great thing about the Social Science department is that it allows you so many choices with classes.
