Social Sciences
Over the course of the program, students in the social sciences will engage with the breadth of the field and learn about how research in the social sciences happens. Students will participate in a number of courses and exercises designed to demonstrate and elucidate the methods and practices involved in a social sciences research project, including how to read and analyze academic literature, how to create a research question, how to begin a research proposal, and ultimately how to create a social sciences research project.
Additionally, students will take specialized courses about history, political science, international relations, and linguistics, among other fields normally not taught within high school in order to show students all of the possibilities that social sciences as a field has to offer. At the end of the program, students will have simultaneously expanded their breadth of knowledge and learned how to confidently enter the world of social sciences research.
