 Understanding human behavior and social interaction is central to self-knowledge, personal development, creativity and leadership, and consequentially to a flourishing economy, society, politics and culture—all aspects of a well-lived life. The Social and Behavioral Sciences & Global Studies programs at the University of St. Thomas integrate and apply theoretical and practical understanding of human behavior in the fields of Communication, History, Integrated Humanities, International Studies, Irish Studies, Political Science and Psychology. The SBSGS Division is home also to UST’s Distinguished Diplomat Program, Taiwan & East Asia Studies, Latin American Studies, and Pre-Law Program. Graduate programs are offered in Master of Arts in Diplomacy & Strategic Affairs (MDSA), the interdisciplinary Master in Liberal Arts (MLA), Master in Public Policy and Administration (MPPA) and Master of Arts in Applied Sport and Performance Psychology (MASPP).
