The UMKC School of Humanities and Social Sciences (SHSS) is comprised of ten academic departments and multiple interdisciplinary programs. Our 29 majors and 27 minors support students in developing the most sought-after career skills – excellent communication, analysis, collaboration, and creative problem-solving. Students’ classroom experiences often expand into Kansas City with community-based learning and internships that lead to strong community connections and job placements.
You can help support a stronger community with a gift to support humanities and social sciences students today!
Our students work alongside curators at world-renowned museums, cover stories for local news outlets and radio stations, intern for professional sports teams and gain experience at top companies. Getting involved and making connections outside of the classroom not only makes for a more dynamic college experience, but also helps our students develop professionally.
