Humanities, Social Science and Education

The Humanities and Social Sciences primarily include the study of human behavior and interaction in social, cultural, environmental, economic, and political contexts. The Humanities and Social Sciences focus on historical, contemporary, and future aspects of human lives from personal to global contexts.
Humanities and Social Sciences teach students to question, think critically, solve problems, communicate effectively, make decisions, and adapt to change. Understanding historical, geographical, political, economic, and societal factors are the key aspect in studying Humanities and social sciences. The Humanities and Social Sciences subjects provide a broad understanding of the world in which we live, and how people can participate as active and informed citizens with the high-level skills needed for the 21st century. Traditions and values of a society are given the utmost importance in Humanities and Social sciences.
