The National Science Foundation, more often known as NSF, is a United States government agency that mainly supports essential research and education in all the non-medical related fields of science and engineering.
The attempts of the National Science Foundation are aimed at realizing their mission, which is to “To promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; and to secure the national defense.”
In line with this particular mission, the NSF has constituted the Law & Social Sciences Program wherein it seeks to ask for proposals that could attend to social scientific studies of law and law-like systems of rules.

I believe that there is a good case for the teaching of every social science. In particular I support the call for the teaching of sociology to all students in Grade 12 and above. At least one year of study will provide students with the knowledge and skills that will contribute toward their social and academic development. However, it can be offered as an elective to all others who wished to pursue it at a higher level of study. In some countries sociology is taught to students who are 16 and over on a voluntarily basis. I think it is much too important to be treated in this manner.
