The social science disciplines...
...investigate the structure of society and the activities of its members.
UMM students can major in most of these disciplines and each discipline
has its own
faculty coordinator.
|
The division also provides courses for the Interdisciplinary Studies program, a major in
Liberal Arts for the Human Services, and a social science major for
teacher licensure.
Social Science students participate in internships at local, state and
federal levels. Many have worked closely with faculty to co-author papers
and present research at national conferences. For more information visit
our discipline links or drop by the division office at 109 Camden Hall.
The mission of the Division of Social Sciences is to
foster a dynamic
academic climate and to support faculty scholarship and student
scholarship. The Division of Social Sciences supports the mission of the
University of Minnesota, Morris by:
- Providing essential aspects of a liberal arts education through
understanding humans in their diversity as expressed in their histories,
ideas, institutions, and behaviors.
- Providing service in cooperation with other offices and programs to
the
campus and the greater community that contribute to the discovery and
dissemination of knowledge to the Social Sciences and related fields.
-
Providing our students with core knowledge of their chosen majors, and
competence in the methodologies, techniques, and skills required in their
fields.
