Humanities, arts, and social sciences (HASS) is a broad term used to group together the academic disciplines of humanities, arts and social sciences. It is used as an academic counterpart to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in the United States, Canada, Australia, and other countries.[1][2][3] HASS graduates comprise them majority of the workforce in many developed countries (e.g. 64% in Australia).[1] However, HASS subjects often receive a lower governmental funding and can have lower reputation within universities.[2][4] There is a measured relationship between citizens' HASS awareness with more accurate threat perceptions, high community activity, and cultural engagement at the local level.[5]
