A key aim of the DASSH program is to equip graduates with literacies necessary for navigating the contemporary world.
Along with a foundational education from within the social sciences and humanities, DASSH develops student literacies in areas outside these disciplines.
Developing literacies means giving students structured and detailed introductions to bodies of knowledge and skill-sets that they will encounter in future eduction, jobs and other pursuits.
DASSH graduates may choose to follow pathways that lead to mastery in particular areas by laddering into university, career programs or work opportunities.
The DASSH Curriculum groups courses to help students develop particular skills.
