Department Overview

DESCRIPTION OF EXCELLENCE

Through the study of cultures, history, government, and economics, students make connections between actions of the past and current global events, examine ethical questions, refine their worldview, and translate their learning into compassionate action in their lives.

DISTINCTIVE EXPERIENCE AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Each year, students in the Social Science department engage in interactive, hands-on, real-world learning through innovative teaching, simulations and creative projects, guest speakers, museum trips, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Students have the opportunity to engage in original research, volunteer in local elections, and apply their understanding of civic and Christian duty through campus outreach clubs and missions trips around the world.
