Humanities and Social Sciences department offers courses that examine the philosophical, literary, aesthetic, and cultural awareness of people of different cultures throughout the ages as well as courses which focus on people as members of society. These courses offer students the opportunity to explore their creativity and imagination. They stimulate critical thinking on the ways people act and have acted in response to their societies and on how their actions in turn change their society.
