The Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences option is designed for the student who desires a broad exposure to the development of human culture and social organization through exploration of the Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences and how each area influences and supports the other at the Associate Degree Level.
Courses in the Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences option are those which focus on the cultural activities and artistic expressions, as well as the organizational principles and patterns of human beings. Such courses include introductory or integrative courses in arts, anthropology, foreign languages, history, economics, literature, music, philosophy, politics, psychology, religion, and theatre. These courses are designed to help the student develop an awareness of the ways in which people throughout the ages and in different cultures have responded to themselves and the world around them.
General Education requirements vary widely from institution to institution. It is highly recommended that students see a counselor or consult the selected baccalaureate transfer campus catalog for appropriate GE course selection.
