LSS - Liberal Arts/Social Sciences

The social sciences option in GCC’s liberal arts major offers an in-depth exploration of human behavior and complex social relationships through courses in anthropology, economics, environmental studies, political science, psychology, sociology, and gender and women’s studies. You’ll study how human psychology informs the structure of society as well as how societies can shape the behavior of individuals. The analytical work you’ll do in these classes will help you become more aware of how your own behavior is interrelated with biology as well as culture. You’ll also develop the ability to frame and pursue significant questions about human societies with scientific rigor.
