Professor, Interim Dean of the School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Education

Welcome to Neumann University’s School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Education. Our School offers a diverse array of undergraduate, Master’s, and doctoral programs and houses an exceptional Child Development Center serving children ages 3 to 5. Faculty take a personal interest in the well-being of each student and are committed to ensuring that students experience a strong academic program framed by Neumann’s RISES values: Reverence, Integrity, Service, Excellence, and Stewardship.

In the School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Education, faculty believe that education is a vehicle through which learners can develop academically, socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. They encourage and mentor students in the classroom, support them in their athletic endeavors, and partner with them through co-curricular clubs and organizations. Consistent with Neumann’s mission and vision, faculty guide students as they develop into thoughtful and ethical leaders who use their gifts in service within the local and global community.

Please consider exploring one of our excellent programs in early elementary and special education, secondary education, educational studies, liberal arts, pre-law, psychology, political science, and English. If you are seeking a graduate program, the School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Education offers programs at the master’s level in clinical mental health counseling and education, and a doctoral program in educational leadership. In addition, the School offers students the opportunity to enhance their resume by pursuing minors in each major area and in history, literature, philosophy, social work, sustainability, theology, writing, and youth ministry. Information about each of these programs is available at the School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Education program pages.

Please contact the Office of Admissions to receive additional information and to arrange a campus visit.

I look forward to answering any questions you have and welcoming you into Neumann University’s School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Education.
