THE SCHOOL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES

The School of Social Sciences strives to bring about a world made more productive, more just, and more human by its commitment to teaching, research and action. It recognizes a multiplicity of perspectives from which to examine society - its history, social, political and economic lives.

The eleven departments and programs which make up the School administer undergraduate and graduate degree programs and research centers:

• Chinese Studies
• Communication
• Development Studies
• Economics
• Education
• European Studies
• History
• Japanese Studies
• Political Science
• Psychology
• Sociology & Anthropology

Through these fields, the School strives to mold students sensitive to their immediate contexts as points-of-departure in their desire for global citizenship. Philippine society and culture is the wellspring from which the School seeks to draw its contribution to the nation, to the Asia-Pacific region, and to global inter-cultural heritage.

A place where spirituality is mature, where knowledge and wisdom is sought, where freedom of scholarship is upheld, where disciplines are diverse, where teachers and learners are united in collegiality - that is what the School of Social Sciences seeks to form.
