Discipline descriptionThe Social Science courses afford
students with the opportunity to examine a topic from the perspectives of
several disiplines in the social sciences (including psychology, sociology,
anthropology, history,and economics). As a result, students develop a much more
comprehensive understanding of the complexity of an issue. Students can
also gain insight into how practitioners of the various disciplines make sense
of human behavior and how their approaches differ.
