Social sciences

What is the Social Sciences?

The social sciences are a group of academic disciplines that study the human aspects of the world. The difference between the social sciences and the humanities and the arts is that the social sciences emphasize the application of scientific methods (in the sense used in the basic sciences), which include quantitative and qualitative methods.

WHAT IS A SOCIAL SCIENCE?

Humanities and social sciences tend to be lumped together as they are both the study of human beings and how we live, have lived or will live. However, as the British Academy says the Humanities are about individual and unique cases whereas the social sciences are concerned with the population in general. Social scientists tend to use scientific methods to approach areas of study such as the laweconomics, politics, sociology, geography, psychology and history. However, there is significant overlap with humanities especially in subject areas like history, so some courses can be either depending on the approach.
