ART101 Understanding Your World: Introduction to HASS Theory

This course introduces students to some of the most important, urgent, and challenging questions being addressed in Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS) in the 21st century, and encourages students to approach their HASS journey with an enquiring, critical, and open mind. HASS offers a range of theories, methods and philosophies that can help us understand and adapt to constantly changing global and professional settings. This course equips students with intellectual scaffolding for application during and after their degree, including covering topics such as types of knowledge and ways of thinking, types of power and control, and positionality and identity. The theories explored in this course will inform students’ progression through their chosen disciplines, and establish a common conceptual framework across HASS.
