The Social Sciences Division encompasses the history, theory, and investigation of societies, systems, regions, groups and individuals. These are central concerns of the departments of African American Studies, Anthropology, Economics, Geography, History, Political Science, Public Affairs, Psychology, Sociology, International Relations and Women’s Studies. Hence most courses satisfying the Social Sciences Division requirements come from these departments.

No more than three courses may be taken from a single department or program (even if the courses of the department or program are in more than one division).
