HUMANITIES MATTER
A symposium on “Humanities Matter” which will focus on “Conceptualizing Humanities “. “Humanities and Sciences: An interface” and “Humanities as Bedrock of Knowledge “in 3 sessions.
The Symposium brings together diverse scholars and experts address questions that arise from the perceived threat to humanities across educational institutions. Technical and commercial advancement has marginalized humanistic values, empathy, and social justice. It will address the role of humanities for science, commerce, and engineering students, exploring how to balance theory with practice, resolve conflict constructively, and incorporate reflection into learning. The discussion aims to highlight the importance of humanities in developing well-rounded, thoughtful individuals and propose practical measures to integrate these values meaningfully into education.
