SOCIAL SCIENCES COURSES

CHC’s School of Social Sciences seeks to understand the forces that drive modern society.

This journey of discovery allows us to make positive and significant changes not only to ourselves but the broader community.

Understanding the needs of people from a godly perspective and bringing into line our stance on compassionate care and social justice is imperative to bring healing to a broken world.

CHC graduates in the Social Sciences enjoy fulfilling careers across a broad range of industries, including government organisations, not-for-profits and private industry.
