The School of Social Services focuses on how people think and act as individuals and in society.

They will engage in the multidisciplinary study of the mind, experience an understanding of the environment in which business and other organizations exist and, finally, learn to analyze and evaluate public policy and gain an understanding of the policy-making process. Additionally all of our social services programs are accredited by various internationally recognized accreditation bodies, which insures that graduates will be able to get rewarding and exciting jobs all over the world.
