A Gateway to the World<br />
Social scientists strive to understand how<br />
societies function, evolve and respond<br />
to instabilities such as war, disease and<br />
political upheaval. They also study how<br />
human beings interact within networks,<br />
from families and communities to nations<br />
and the world. By combining professional<br />
and academic paths, social science students<br />
at St. Olaf learn critical-thinking skills and<br />
gain a broad education while developing<br />
practical knowledge that prepares them<br />
for a career.<br />
