Social Sciences

About This Area of Study

We are surrounded by people every day, but usually in passing. How often do you stop to wonder how or why they behave the way they do? This area of study does, because understanding the how and why of human interaction can help both individuals and entire societies improve and thrive.

What You Can Expect to Do

Your natural curiosity and the study of people and how they behave and interact can lead to a variety of opportunities in the social sciences field. And, as a bonus, learning about others can help you learn a bit more about yourself too.

We get it: It seems like college is more expensive every year. The good news is there are ways to make it more affordable, including serving for a set period in the Military, which can cover up to 100% of the cost through its generous Tuition Assistance programs. Oh, and you don’t have to put your schooling on hold to do it.
