Courses that fulfill the Mapping the World requirement are numerous and variedeverything from social anthropology to social robotics, intercultural communication to contemporary feminist theory. Just as cartography is the study of making maps, study in the social sciences helps you explore social experience and organizationand map the human world.

The ability to make comparisons across cultures and time periods is a critical interpretive skill for citizens of the twenty-first century. It helps us articulate similarities and differences and gives us insight into how people think and livewith all the moral, ethical, and ideological forces at play.泭

The courses encourage you to compare worlds past and present in an effort to promote historical and cross-cultural understanding. The humanitiesbe it history, literature, philosophy, languages, religion, or arthelp us to make sense of the world. As the root of the very word suggests, the humanities explore what it means to be human.泭
