Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts - Social/Behavioral Science
Program Overview
The Liberal Arts – Social/Behavioral Science degree program provides a structured and coherent path for students at Community College of Philadelphia who want broad exposure to social sciences in areas such as social work, sociology, urban studies, political science, geography, anthropology, economics, history, or related fields. This major is especially recommended for those who plan to transfer to baccalaureate programs in social work.
Liberal Arts—Social/Behavioral Science students are required to enroll in FYE 101: First Year Experience within the first twelve credits and must complete required courses ENGL 101, ENGL 102, college-level math, CIS 103, PSYC 101, SOC 101, the first in the Humanities pair, and the Communication course within the first 24 credits so that they are free to choose the courses that best fit their long-term educational goals for the remainder of the program.
Students are expected to consult with an academic advisor or counselor upon entry to the program and in subsequent semesters. Transfer planning should begin early so that the student can make the most informed choices. The Liberal Arts – Social/Behavioral Science curriculum contains a number of electives and allows students and advisors to shape the selection of courses to meet individual goals. Students who follow the Liberal Arts – Social/Behavioral Science curriculum and plan to attend a specific four-year college after graduation should choose electives that duplicate as closely as possible those in the first two years of the program of that college.
