The School of Humanities and Social Sciences provides an education which promotes a wide base of knowledge and develops intellectual capacities.

Through the exercise of analytical rigor in the range of disciplines it encompasses, our community of faculty members and students endeavours to do a number of things: it produces work which is aimed at resolving important social and humanitarian issues; it utilises new scientific developments, such as virtual reality, and to address puzzles in human psychology.

Further, our community fosters the development of critical thinking as a tool of interpreting the world and the human experience; it engages in a multiplicity of creative activities; it scrutinizes languages and cultures; it consciously cultivates ethical reasoning and encourages service to society.
