About CHSS

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences offers degrees in traditional liberal arts disciplines and interdisciplinary studies and in select applied programs that serve important needs in our employment and educational market. The college also supports and enriches the broader curriculum and enhances the life of the university community through co-curricular initiatives in the Departments of Arts and Humanities, English, and Social Sciences and in the work of the O' Kane Theatre, O' Kane Gallery, Cultural Enrichment Center, and the Center for Public Deliberation.

CHSS promotes the wider mission of the university by supporting general education and core curriculum components, introducing students to the intellectual underpinnings of a college education in English composition and communication, humanities and fine and performing arts, and social and behavioral sciences; prepares students for entering the job market or continuing on to graduate and professional education, and living responsible and fulfilling lives; and encourages the scholarship and professional development of its faculty.
