WElcome to social sciences
Get informed and become engaged in shaping our society and culture at Edmonds College
Today, students are actively looking for ways to get involved, volunteer, and make
a difference in their community and the world. Classes in the social sciences are
a great place to start. These studies are the gateway to careers in public service
in law, politics, government, business, social work, and counseling as well as to
jobs at local non-profit organizations and international non-governmental organizations.
"I find that my students today are deeply interested in the good society. They are concerned with and interested in what's going on in the world and appreciate classes that are relevant to their experience."
— Political Science Instructor Robin Datta
