The Social Sciences major is an interdisciplinary program that provides training in聽History, Political Science, Sociology, Economics and Geography.聽Social Sciences students learn both qualitative and quantitative methodologies in their exploration of human society.聽Graduates may pursue careers such as business administration, government, law, law enforcement, human resources, and public policy.聽The major is also designed for students interested in high school teaching and coaching. The major is aligned with the Social Science subject matter exam on the California Subject Examination for Teachers (CSET), and successful completion of the major means that the California teaching candidate does not need to take the CSET in Social Sciences to be credentialed.
This major appeals to students with a broad range of interests. Students completing the Social Sciences major in the College of the 91成人导航 may also concurrently complete the Single Subject Credential through the Benerd School of Education.
