Studying Humanities & Social Sciences
at the University of Adelaide

The Humanities and Social Sciences have been taught at the University of Adelaide for over 130 years. During this time our programs have been updated constantly to reflect changes in the world. The result is a dynamic range of programs that will inspire those with diverse study and career interests and who want to make an impact in the world. All students will acquire skills in analysis, communication, critical thinking, decision making research which are very marketable for future careers. This is reflected in our graduate success stories.

Humanities and Social Sciences programs offer the greatest flexibility. Students have a wide range of courses to choose from and can choose courses depending on their career aspirations, passion for a specific discipline of study or desire to understand a new area such as Anthropology, Gender Work and Social Inquiry or Politics. The choices are limitless, ranging from Linguistics to Languages, English, Geography and Environmental Studies, Gender Work and Social Inquiry or History. The faculty encourages students to take study abroad in one of our many partner institutions overseas, and also welcomes international students.

Students can also take part in the Faculty's Internship Program and gain practical work experience that will count towards their program.

The staff in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences office are always available to help with you questions about programs, courses, and future careers.
