“Applying Learning and Knowledge to Critical Thinking and Decision Making for the Changing World”
The Social and Behavioral Sciences focus on:
Studying, conceptualizing, theorizing, understanding, and explaining human culture and behavior across a range of historical periods, places, culture, and social structures.
-
Exploring interactions between and reactions to individuals, groups, and the environment.
-
Understanding the various functions of institutions (educational, political, economic, socio-cultural) that evolve from and serve as an important part of human society.
-
The goal of Social and Behavioral Science courses is to allow students to grasp the forces that shape and are shaped by individuals and society. These courses also help students function effectively within an environment that includes other individuals with whom they may not share the same world-view.
