Social science encompasses a wide range of scholarship on human behavior and history, employing studies of individuals and of groups (e.g., organizations, governments, cultures). The Division of Social Science within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at Harvard consists of 10 degree committees and departments and 22 other programs, institutes, centers, and museums. We have approximately 32% of the ladder faculty in the FAS, and 49% of the concentrators!
