欢迎 from the Chair

Why do we do what we do? What difference can an individual make? How are all religions the same? Why do we have governments? If you have ever wondered about these questions, then the Department of Social 科学 in the School of Liberal Arts at 道尔顿状态 College is for you. The Department of Social 科学 focuses on several academic areas that are critical to answering those and many other questions. Included in the department are the areas of political science, 哲学, 刑事司法, 社会学, 和心理学.

我们提供B.S. 两个学位 刑事司法 而在 心理学 and teach a range of courses in the other areas that support the Core Curriculum at 道尔顿状态. You can learn about personal and social behavior of individuals and the impact of government on our lives. You can explore primitive societies as well as modern societies. You can look at the normal, the abnormal, and the criminal. And you can try to come to an understanding about the meaning of life!

Our faculty is exceptionally well-prepared and brings to the classroom a range of experiences in both the academic and non-academic worlds. In addition to excellent teaching, our faculty do research, present papers at academic conferences, sponsor clubs and activities on campus, take students on field trips, and give talks and presentations nationally 而在ternationally. 然而, the overriding focus of our faculty is on the education of our students in the classroom 而在 the preparation of our students for life beyond 道尔顿状态, whether it be in professional careers or in post-baccalaureate education.

I look forward to answering any questions that you might have.
