GE Notes:

GE requirements cannot be waived and other Cal Poly Humboldt courses cannot be substituted for approved GE courses. To fulfill a particular requirement, a course must be completed during the academic year in which the GE status is designated in the catalog. Courses that meet outcomes of more than one GE area A-F, may only be used to satisfy one of those areas.

Goals

Upon completing this requirement, students will be able to:

• apply the discipline-specific vocabulary principles, methodologies, value systems and ethics employed in social science inquiry, to a specific instance
• explain and critically analyze human social, economic, and political issues from the respective disciplinary perspectives by examining them in contemporary as well as historical settings and in a variety of cultural contexts
• illustrate how human social, political, and economic institutions and behavior are inextricably interwoven.
