Expand your world at The Lake

Do you like learning why people do what they do and act the way they act? Then you’ll love studying social sciences at LMC. If you’re still not sure what you want to be, this is a great area of study. The social sciences cover areas like criminal justice, political science and psychology – getting you ready for careers helping and handling people.

Be ready for anything. Studying the humanities and social science at LMC gives you a great base to transfer to a four-year university. But, it also gives you the ability to think critically and analyze information – a key skill in any career you may choose.
