HUMSS is…….

Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) Strand. The HUMMS strand is designed for those who wonder what is on the other side of the wall. … This is for those who are considering taking up journalism, communication arts, liberal arts, education, and other social science-related courses in college.

1. It’s for the curious-minded.

Some might see the HUMSS strand as boring ‘coz of its specialization subjects like Philippine Politics and Governance, World Religions and Belief Systems, and Social Sciences but it isn’t if you’re constantly curious about the world. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it was the satisfaction that brought it back.

2. Predict the future.

Introduction to World Religions and Belief Systems is meant to familiarize the student with the range of human experiences. From the ancient religions to the newest technological advances, HUMSS students have the chance to predict the future because they will spend time looking at the past and learning from all the mistakes and successes of humanity since the beginning of time. In short, study History and its relevance to the contemporary world. YEY the nerds!

3. List down “writing” as one of your hobbies.

HUMSS students are expected to read and write a lot. With subjects like Creative Writing and Creative Nonfiction, you’ll learn how to write poetry, fiction, and drama. For the writers at heart, there’s no more denying that passion.

4. Get a superpower: read minds! 

Well, not exactly read minds but with HUMSS, you will have the ability to understand how people think and why they think that way. One of the possible careers a HUMSS graduate can have is by being a psychologist. You can take up courses like Psychology, Human Capital Development, and Humanities in college.

5. Your future careers are very fulfilling. 

Careers like being a lawyer, teacher, and diplomat are very rewarding. You will be able to contribute to the world by bringing justice, molding the youth, or creating friendships between countries. Being in the HUMSS strand gives you the chance to make a mark in the world!(wordpress.com)

WHY I CONSIDERED HUMSS AS MY STRAND?

When I was a kid one of my greatest dream is  to serve people with the fullest extent of gratitude and compassion. As I grew up, I used several ways on finding my voice and also gaining confidence towards myself. It wasn't easy to a weak man to stepped out on something that could possibly change the world. When I saw things from different perspective, that's when I realized to be one of the change in this world full of uncertainties. At 16, it's when I found my voice and used it to inspire other people, to make them feel that they are enough regardless of society's  ever changing ideology of perfection. I'm an avid advocate of education, believing that no one should ever be left behind - believing that education should be a rights and not a privilege. I also want to become a lawyer someday who will fight for human rights, and being a representation of a man of purpose.  These are the reasons why I took HUMSS as my strand because I believe that HUMSS are the future leaders of our country.
