Associate in Arts in Social Science

at Ohlone College

The Associate in Arts in Social Science is an interdisciplinary program of study designed to prepare students to transfer to most universities. It is a general social science degree that does not specialize in one specific discipline. The degree allows students to explore a number of transfer and career possibilities within the social sciences. The general emphasis provides a strong foundation for students pursuing a baccalaureate major within a wide range of social science disciplines, including administration of justice, anthropology, Chicano Studies, economics, ethnic studies, geography, history, psychology, or sociology. Through this interdisciplinary program, students will gain a better understanding of human behavior, social relationships, and social structures.
