About the Social and Human Sciences

The College of Social Sciences and Humanities is committed to rigorous teaching and research, and to helping students become critical, creative thinkers. Its aim is to prepare graduates who can succeed in their fields and contribute to the society around them. The college offers two bachelor's programs: Philosophy and Ethics, and Social Studies in Tolerance and Peace. Both meet international academic standards, connect to the needs of the job market, and combine established scholarship with current methods. Alongside their coursework, students build character and a sense of social responsibility that prepares them for careers, graduate study, and research.

Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Ethics

Bachelor's

The Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Ethics is considered a unique program, both scientifically and culturally pioneering in the United Arab Emirates. It enhances the position of philosophy as an intellectual, humanistic, and ethical discipline throughout the ages. The program provides a clear and comprehensive vision in philosophy, ethics, and religion—essential concepts that contribute to developing a balanced intellectual mindset fortified with noble values and virtues. Additionally, this holistic vision strengthens the ability to constructively approach and view human issues from a global perspective. In this way, the Bachelor’s program in Philosophy and Ethics at Mohamed bin Zayed University for Humanities stands out from other philosophical programs offered in other academies, as those often present purely philosophical studies that do not follow a clear ethical framework and do not offer an integrated view of religion, philosophy, and ethics in addressing human issues.

Bachelor of Social Studies in Tolerance and Peace

Bachelor's

The program offers students the opportunity to gain a deep and comprehensive understanding of a wide range of pressing social issues, with a focus on the concepts of tolerance and peace. It aims to equip them with the ability to develop and implement policies and programs that enhance quality of life, promote social justice, address global challenges, foster cultural understanding, and develop innovative solutions to social issues. This enables students to make a positive and sustainable impact in their communities. The program seeks to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand, analyze, and apply the concepts, principles, and values of tolerance and peace in society. It emphasizes the study of social and cultural aspects that contribute to building and strengthening a culture of tolerance and peace. Additionally, it aims to prepare highly qualified professionals with integrated academic and practical competencies to promote a culture of tolerance and coexistence and contribute positively and constructively to sustainable social development.
