Humanities and social science programs allow students to study the human experience, better understand how it is being shaped, and advance it. Our programs offer cutting-edge research opportunities, and a skillset that is highly sought after in the workforce. Become a humanities or social science graduate student, and earn an adaptable degree from San Jose State University, located in the center of San José and in the heart of Silicon Valley.
