Social science is the broad study of society and human behavior. It examines how society works and is influenced by people. Social science provides information to help governments, organizations, and others understand issues like unemployment, economic growth, voting behaviors, and what makes people happy. At University College Dublin, social science students study topics like climate change, crime, inequality, gender issues, cities, human development, and data analysis. After studying social science, students can become teachers or work in professional or technical jobs that utilize social science skills and knowledge.
4. What is Social Science
Social science is, in its broadest sense, the
study of society and the manner in which
people behave and influence the world around
us.
Social science tells us about the world beyond our
immediate experience and can help explain how
our own society works - from the causes of
unemployment or what helps economic growth, to
how and why people vote, or what makes people
happy.
It provides vital information for governments
and policymakers, local authorities, non-
governmental organizations and others
