Academic Departments

Question the norm. As the largest school on campus, the School of Social Sciences encompasses a diverse range of academic departments and programs, offering students the flexibility to pursue either a broad or specialized approach to their education. We encourage students to question the norm and engage deeply with pressing social issues through faculty-supported research. Our interdisciplinary focus fosters collaboration across our nine academic departments, creating a rich environment for innovative thinking and problem-solving. Whether you're exploring the field broadly or focusing on a specific area of interest, our programs are designed to help you investigate and understand the complexities of the social sciences.
