Both the three-year and the four-year Bachelor of Arts with a major in Social provide a distinctive opportunity for cross-discipline study. The Social Science major is an interdisciplinary major that focuses on CMU’s strengths in History, International Development Studies, Peace & Conflict Transformation Studies, and Psychology. Students develop the ability to critically analyze material and synthesize it into broad interdisciplinary perspectives on a variety of topics including justice, responsible citizenship, and multicultural understanding. Students may choose to focus on one of the formal concentrations: Counselling Studies, Intercultural Studies, or Social Services, or they may choose to create their own concentration by blending courses in a manner that focuses on their own interests.
