Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS)
The Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) strand at LCC develops compassionate, reflective, and socially responsible learners who are guided by faith-based values and a commitment to service. Rooted in the institution’s mission to form leaders who uplift communities, HUMSS strengthens students’ abilities in communication, critical thinking, cultural awareness, and understanding human behavior. Through meaningful engagement with social issues and real-world contexts, the strand empowers students to advocate for truth, justice, and human dignity, preparing them to become ethical communicators, educators, counselors, and community builders who contribute to positive societal transformation.
