History:
The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Education is one of the newly created faculties in the College of Education Studies. The college was created in 2014 as a two tier college. After two years of experimentation, it was elevated to a three tier college with the creation of four faculties including our faculty, the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Education (FOHSSE).
FOHSSE was created from the former Department of Arts and Social Sciences Education. It is currently made up of two academic departments: the Department of Arts Education and the Department of Business and Social Sciences Education. The latter is a combination of Business Education and Social Sciences Education disciplines. The two disciplinary areas would be broken down into departments, Business Education and Social Sciences Education when office space is expanded and additional Lectures are recruited in the near future.
