The Master of Science in Entrepreneurship and Innovation (MSEI) program is designed to offer students with business, technical or other non-business degrees a comprehensive education that prepares them to launch entrepreneurial ventures or new business ventures in large organizations.

The program is structured as a 16-24 month, 30-unit program for both business and non-business majors alike and utilizes primarily face-to-face courses but will also integrate hybrid instruction where appropriate. Through coursework and experiential learning activities, students will be exposed to the key concepts of entrepreneurship including creativity and idealization, evaluation and screening of business concepts, business model formulation, startup models and the entrepreneurial process, team formation, marshaling resources, planning techniques, and launch strategies.

The study of anthropology promotes an understanding of self and other by exploring the human condition at all times and in all places. In an interconnected world in which societies depend upon one another, failures in understanding and appreciating differences in goals, values and ways of life can lead to fear, discrimination, oppression, and war. The subfields of biological anthropology, archaeology, and sociocultural anthropology explore human evolution and the emergence of culture, cultural differences and similarities, regional history and ecology, and the role of language in culture.

This program is designed for students who wish to teach social science subjects in California’s schools, middle school through high school OR who wish to build a unique BA in Social Sciences program that suits their interests and professional goals.

FOR those interested in teaching, in addition to this coursework, students will have to pass 2 California pre-credential exams in order to be admitted into a Teaching Credential Program, post-BA: the California Subject Examination for Teachers (CSET), which encompasses knowledge and understanding primarily of history, but also geography, economics, and political science and the California Basic Educational Skills Test (CBEST) which is comprised of three subtests: basic math, reading, and writing skills for individuals planning a career in teaching.  

The core discipline in the program is history, as that is the most widely taught social science subject in secondary schools. Students also choose a second concentration in one of the other three disciplines: geography, economics, or political science.  Students interested in pursuing Teaching are encouraged to see their Social Science advisor early in their program for assistance in choosing courses.

FOR those with interests outside of teaching in multidisciplinary and individualized programs, this program is also designed for students with a varied set of academic and career interests. Students develop skills in areas that are deemed crucial in a wide array of contemporary professions: Globalism, Multiculturalism and Intercultural Fluency, Critical Thinking and Problem Solving, Oral and Written Communication, Teamwork and Collaboration and Professionalism and Work Ethic. For students interested in the multidisciplinary and individualized programs, it is recommended that you first meet with an Academic Advisor in order to develop your program. All multidisciplinary and individualized programs must be approved by the BA in Social Sciences Coordinator.

Additionally, students looking to enhance their career prospects may elect to complete up to 6 units of SSCI 5750 Internship and 6 units of SSCI 5950 Independent Studies, for a total of 3 - 12 units, with the consent of the Program Coordinator.

The BA in Public History offers undergraduate students an in depth introduction to various fields of public and oral history, including museum management, archival practices, historical archaeology, and oral history.

As history majors, students receive broad training in the academic discipline of history, and broad content knowledge by surveying courses from around the globe.
