The Division of the Social Sciences includes
the departments, committees and programs which are engaged particularly
in the study of human beings in social and temporal contexts; the
origins, development, and structure of institutions and ideas, and
the relationships between individuals and among groups of individuals.
Research and instruction, which are strongly interdisciplinary,
focus on interpreting the complexity of human experience through
time and explore the interactions between diverse peoples and the
world in which they live.
The division welcomes as students potential researchers, scholars,
and teachers, as well as those who seek in the social sciences the
enrichment of their cultural preparation for the appreciation of
life.The division awards the degrees of Master of Arts and Doctor
of Philosophy. The division also cooperates in the undergraduate
programs leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts awarded by the
College. Students seeking the Bachelor of Arts degree should consult
the College’s publication, Courses and Programs of Study.
Programs leading to the Ph.D. are offered by the Departments of
Anthropology, Economics, History, Political Science, Psychology,
and Sociology, as well as the Committees on Human Development and
Social Thought. Programs leading to the A.M. are offered by the
Committee on International Relations, the Program in Latin American
and Caribbean Studies, the Program in Middle Eastern Studies, and
