DEGREE PROGRAMS FOR: SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY STUDIES
The bachelor of arts degree in Social and Community Studies is designed with the adult learner in mind.

Ultimately, the program offers the adult learner an opportunity to gain insight into the society and political community in which he or she lives.
Courses are practical and based on contemporary social and community issues. Students are exposed to current theory and research findings, with a focus on developing critical thinking and other applied skills.
