Social science and humanities cover a wide range.
Humanism originally refers to knowledge related to human interests, which is different from theology dominated by the church in the Middle Ages. Later, its meaning has evolved several times. In a narrow sense, it refers to the study of Latin, Greek and classical literature, including philosophy, economics, politics, history, law, literature and art, ethics and linguistics.
Social science refers to the study of social phenomena, such as politics, economics, military science, law, education, literature and art, history, linguistics, ethnology, religion, sociology and so on. Its task is to study and expound various social phenomena and their development laws.
So I suggest you read some books on politics, economy and law. In fact, you'd better read the book "Basic Knowledge of Civil Servants", which is suitable for civil servants, enterprises and institutions to participate in the recruitment examination.

3. How to decide the institutions for postgraduate entrance examination in Han Shuo?
First, it is an obvious difference between undergraduate employment and graduate employment that cross-institutional examination takes precedence over cross-professional research, that is, professionalism and comprehensiveness.
Under normal circumstances, undergraduates are required to be as professional as possible in the job market. Generally, most students who study history are engaged in the profession of history teachers, and those who study history rarely become a member of the bank. However, graduate employment is comprehensive to some extent. For example, students recruited by some banks generally have no professional restrictions, and they can reach excellent level only through special pre-job training. Therefore, at this time, most of these employers are concerned about the graduation colleges of students. For example, the graduate students of Peking University and the graduate students of local schools appear in the competition for a position at the same time, so the school advantages of Peking University graduate students will be revealed immediately. Therefore, according to the employment situation of graduates, we propose the first one for everyone. Second, the advantages of interdisciplinary (1) Foreign language majors are foreign language majors. If you don't like your major during the postgraduate entrance examination, you can give priority to cross-majors.
There is a simple reason. Foreign language majors generally have a good command of their own foreign languages. However, if you continue to study as a graduate student, the first problem you face is the second foreign language, which is also the main reason why foreign language majors miss the postgraduate exam. But after their cross-majors, foreign languages are not only a disadvantage, but also their own advantages. When other students are struggling about whether their foreign language can cross the line, foreign language majors can give full play to their foreign language advantages and devote this time to professional courses. Therefore, we say that foreign language majors can lend their foreign language time to professional courses when they take cross-professional exams, so it is optional.
For the master of Chinese international education, foreign language students have more advantages than other cross-examinees. Because the master of Chinese international education has certain requirements for foreign languages; Candidates with good foreign language proficiency will also be more competitive in the second interview.
In addition, in the process of Chinese teaching practice, there will be more opportunities for foreign language application. (B) science and engineering students cross-disciplinary subjects, candidates should see their own strengths and weaknesses.
The basic courses of science and engineering majors are all related to mathematics. Students who learn mathematics well and transfer to economics, automation, computer and other mathematics-related majors also have certain advantages. Under normal circumstances, students majoring in science and engineering can generally reduce the time spent on mathematics and leave it to other disciplines when they take the cross-disciplinary examinations of popular majors such as finance and economics.
In addition, I have a certain background in science and engineering or mathematics, and I also have certain advantages in learning psychological measurement and statistics. Psychological measurement and statistics are subjects that liberal arts students who take the psychology postgraduate exam are afraid of, but it is much easier for students with mathematical foundation to learn this part. However, pure liberal arts majors such as history and Chinese pay more attention to perceptual knowledge and have poor logical thinking. If you choose "arts and sciences", high number is the first threshold. Therefore, it is prudent to transfer liberal arts to science and engineering.
(3) Consistency of Proximity Generally speaking, it is best to follow the "principle of proximity" when changing majors, that is, to find similar majors or related disciplines for cross-examination, and it is best to find the "intersection" between majors before the exam. If it is not its own strength, it is forbidden to have a large professional span. The safest way is to find different branches under the same category or under the same basic theory, such as chemistry to pharmacy, mathematics to theoretical economics, electrical appliances to electronics, automatic control to telecommunications, machinery to mechanics, civil construction to water conservancy engineering, etc.
Thirdly, teachers' attitude towards interdisciplinary or interdisciplinary students. Some graduate tutors who specialize in academic research or cutting-edge scientific research do not "trust" interdisciplinary graduate students, because these majors require very high professional theoretical knowledge and practical ability of graduate students. However, for interdisciplinary graduate students, other tutors are welcome. For example, some biological instructors do projects involving biochip production, so they are also welcome to apply computer science. Tutors who study the comparison between China and the West in journalism especially welcome foreign language majors to apply for the exam, because they can translate first-hand foreign language materials in scientific research. Some tutors study the history of Chinese journalism, preferring candidates majoring in history and classical literature.
In Han Shuo, the mode of joint guidance between on-campus tutors and off-campus tutors is generally adopted, and due to the particularity of the major, many tutors are not tutors of TCFL. Therefore, cross-disciplinary students do not need to worry about being treated with "distrust" by their tutors.
