Welcome to Social Sciences

Cliff Staten - Dean

We offer 6 BA programs (History, International Studies, Journalism, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology) and one BS program (Criminal Justice) in the School of Social Sciences at Indiana University Southeast.  Each discipline has a demanding curriculum culminating in a capstone senior seminar experience.  Our faculty members set high standards for our students while equipping them with the skills and knowledge to meet those standards.  Students in the School of Social Sciences learn many different skills such as effective time management; effective written and oral communication; critical thinking; effective use of the scientific method; effective use of statistics; the ability to access, evaluate, interpret and use information to solve problems; the ability to work cooperatively and  constructively in a group setting; the ability to make moral and ethical judgments; and the ability to empathize or to understand the choices of people that are different.

Our students also learn the values of hard work; patience and persistence; honesty; reliability and responsibility; a strong sense of efficacy; the ability to agree to disagree in a civil and constructive manner; tolerance of those who are different; a strong sense of fairness or fair play when interacting with others; and the value of becoming an active and engaged citizen.  It is these values and skills coupled with the knowledge base they gain in their academic program that will enable our students to be successful in life no matter what career they choose.
