The School of Humanities and Social Sciences offers courses which may be included in the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, or Bachelor of Engineering degree programs.

The School came into existence on 1 July 2003, and comprises the three former schools of History, Politics and Language, Literature and Communication (English and Indonesian). Whether examining the foundations and products of conflict or of cooperation, these disciplines enhance our ability to know ourselves and consequently to lead others.

The School offers students coherent pathways through the various offerings of each of its disciplines. Indonesian history and politics courses may be combined with Indonesian language. Alternatively, European history and politics may be studied with European literature or film. A similar combination for Australian politics, literature and history is possible. American history and literature may be combined with courses in American politics and foreign policy.

These studies lead to a degree that is highly useful for officers of the ADF, providing them with the analytical and critical skills needed both in the immediate region and in the wider world.
