The Social Sciences Division at PCC

From psychology to philosophy to ethnic studies to history, social science courses will deepen your understanding of culture and humanity. Prepare to transfer with a Social Sciences major, fulfill some GE Requirements, or take an elective. Whichever path you're on, our courses will engage you in discussion and develop your independent thinking and critical reading and writing, as you explore the major topics that face human society.

Plan Your Social Sciences Classes

Most of our courses are transferrable to a four-year university. Make an appointment with a counselor to update your education plan. Or, use the Transfer Center's transfer planning resources to determine which social science classes you should be taking!
