UMass Amherst College Of Social And Behavioral Sciences

At the UMass Amherst College of Social and Behavioral Sciences (SBS), we’re interested in how you will influence society. Our college houses undergraduate, graduate, and certificate programs that study human behavior from different social science vantage points. This work is vital; it allows us to understand why people do what they do, which then allows us to react from an informed perspective. We’re better equipped to address problems like war, poverty, and climate change because we’re uncovering what motivates humans.
