Gaining an appreciation of the Arts and Humanities, either in general terms
or through the study of one specific academic area, helps us understand our
present circumstances. Subjects such as literature and history are essential in
understanding our modern situation and challenges, helping us to understand
problems and identify solutions, based on solid and well thought-out
principles. The Arts and Humanities are about life – past life, present life
and the development of future life. In this sense, the College envisions preparing students to engage and deal with society by
nurturing a broad knowledge and promoting creative and critical thinking skills
which are essential to our society and the world at large. We help to develop
our students’ talents and realize their full potential. In addition, we
encourage our students to think independently and creatively, but act
cooperatively with others in open-mindedness to contribute to building our
nation, the region and the world. To this end, the College strives to produce
graduates who are articulate and are able to think analytically and communicate
effectively with others; to provide a high-quality education to students in
order to respond to the needs of society, and to energetically support
faculties in research and inspire students to have a passion for life-long
learning: to Build Tomorrow’s Leaders.
To this end, the College offers the following
programs at present:
·
Asian
Studies (BA)
·
Psychology
(BA)
·
Sociology
(BA)
·
Social
Work (AA, BA)
This
program offers cross-disciplinary courses in the humanities and social
sciences, with an emphasis on their regional – East, South and Southeast Asian
– context. In this way, students gain insights into Cambodia and its place in a
regional context, in terms of the area's broad socio-cultural and economic
diversity; and thus insights into how to foster and nurture beneficial
relations with our neighbors.

As a discipline, Sociology describes
and examines social structures and processes, including how society emerges,
change, and connect with its individual members. Specifically, Sociology
examines how a society organizes itself and evolves through social processes in
a social environment, how social groups interact with each other, and the way
it shapes people’s behavior, beliefs, and identity.

Probably more so than most other
countries, Cambodia’s recent tumultuous history and its after-effects
(including the grossly-skewed distribution of economic resource) mean that the
pressures on individual and their families become more varied and less
predictable as society get more complex and complicated. Our undergraduate
program in social work, based on the “person-in-environment” paradigm, aims to
produce generalist social practitioners with the skills necessary to help
improve the lot of those members of the communities who, through force of
circumstance, have development interpersonal and other problems.
