The School of Humanities & Social Sciences represents the heart of university academia, and is the foundation of a liberal arts education at The Citadel. We believe that the path to principled leadership goes through the humanities and social sciences. Through study in our disciplines, you can develop an appreciation for and understanding of the richness and diversity of the human experience. Through such knowledge can you engage people from a variety of cultures, think critically and creatively about the world around you, solve the tough problems facing humanity, and act nobly on behalf of something bigger than yourself. Majoring in one of our disciplines will support a transformation of mind and viewpoint so you can become the person and leader you wish to be and follow a path toward success and fulfillment. Areas of study include, Criminal Justice, English, Fine Arts, & Communications, History, Modern Languages, Political Science, Psychology, and Intelligence & Security Studies. Professions in business, the armed forces, law & law enforcement, education, and public service in a variety of local, state, and federal agencies, are most commonly pursued by SHSS majors.
