Study
The Wellington Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences offers study options to challenge and broaden your perspective and give you skills employers want.
Study in the humanities and social sciences will help you explore the many facets of the human experience and how we interact as individuals and communities. In the humanities, we explore what it means to be human—languages, literature, history, media studies, film, theatre, and music. In the social sciences, we explore how humans interact with each other—cultural anthropology, communication, criminology, and sociology.
