    The goal of the Social Science and Global Studies Program is to help young people make meaningful contributions to the world by developing the ability to collaborate and communicate in making informed and reasoned decisions as citizens of a diverse, democratic society in an interdependent ever-changing world. To achieve this end, the Social Science and Global Studies offers an interdisciplinary study of citizenship and government, economics, geography and history as well as electives that span both the humanities and social sciences.
