3. Background Information
Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences developed from the integration of the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Faculty of Education aiming at increasing the potential of producing graduates for society and increasing the efficiency of management within the organization. In the first stage, the faculty was entitled the Faculty of Humanities.

Later in the academic year of 2013, the St. Theresa International College Council passed a resolution to separate the Faculty of Education to become independent in order to allow the full potential and responsibility in producing teachers.

At the present, the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences has offered two programs:
1) Bachelor of Arts Program in English for Business Communication aims to produce graduates of liberal arts following the needs of society that require individuals in the business field with a good command of speaking, listening, reading and writing English and to support professional changes in both ASEAN and international levels.

In the academic year of 2014, the Faculty implemented the curriculum improvement according to the development cycle.

2) Bachelor of Communication Arts Program in Digital Media aims at producing graduates of communication arts to serve the needs of the society by transferring the society of changes.
