The social sciences comprise a set of subjects that are concerned with exploring how individuals and civilizations function and progress. There are multiple subjects included under the umbrella of the social sciences: anthropology, economics, geography, history, political science, psychology, sociology, and sometimes criminology. Depending on their chosen degree structure, students may choose to concentrate on one particular subject, or include courses from other disciplines. With a wide range of subjects to study in the social sciences, there is an equally wide array of potential career paths, from research and advanced field studies, to careers in law, education, or government agencies.
