paradigms rather than simply accept them. A principal

of advanced analytical and critical thinking skills,
independent and progressive thinking, allowing them
to access and contribute towards all forms of human
knowledge, and to make dynamic interventions in
their chosen professions. Humanities graduates often
achieve public prominence, and contribute towards
social good of society.
