History, Philosophy & Social Sciences
GRE TEST PREP COURSE AVAILABLE IN OUR COMMUNITY!
 
The Department of History, Philosophy and Social Sciences uses the tools of history, philosophy, political science, and sociology from a Christian perspective to understand more fully the nature of human existence and the development and structure of human societies. Departmental teaching equips students with the skills and insight necessary to engage the world in an informed and responsible manner. Departmental research investigates questions facing human societies in order to promote a deeper understanding of the nature of human interaction, reality, and truth.
 
Through a study of forces such as culture, religion, politics, gender, class, and race, the department helps students become virtuous citizens and responsible shapers of Church and culture. In doing so, we provide an occasion for students to ask penetrating questions, scrutinize deeply held commitments, cultivate a love for truth and a more mature faith. Together these tasks enable us to develop and sustain a Christian view of the world of human life. Additionally, they enable us to promote in unique ways Malone University’s central aim, namely, to seek "Christ’s Kingdom First.”
 
The department offers four majors:
       AND four minors.
