The Master of Social Sciences focuses on social sciences content, and students with undergraduate experience in social science courses do very well in the program. For teachers, this means learning more about the subjects, rather than focusing on teaching methods. The program also welcomes students from other professions, including public administrators. A high level of professional motivation and a desire to learn more about content in the social sciences is a shared characteristic of all students in the program. This degree is not intended as preparation for students who plan to pursue a doctoral degree. With asynchronous coursework and flexible advising, students can complete their degree on their own schedule. While offering flexibility and convenience, online courses are demanding and require self-discipline and self-motivation. Do contact the university for further resources and support.
