Social Sciences and its Subject Areas
“Social Sciences” is an umbrella term for various subject areas. Many different disciplines such as Sociology, Anthropology or Ethnology are covered by it. Communications Science or Journalism can also be described as sub-divisions of social sciences.
Social sciences are concerned with societies and living together in communities, with a focus on systems and institutions and the interactions between the various protagonists. Social scientists are interested in a number of topics which affect society and community life, including, of course, social change and complex connections. Social inequality is traditionally an important topic in social sciences.
In times of societal challenges like demographic change, migration, new technologies, and an ever-widening divide between rich and poor, the subject of social science offers lots of opportunities for further education and stimulates you to tackle current issues.
