How does that make it STEM? If I study social science and use math does that make social science stem? Or does it mean you used a lot of modelling in a non stem subject?
you can name anything anything. Rename astrology as future science and that doesn't make it science. Social science is science like or science-y, but not science. Same with economics. They are heavy in math. They are math adjacent. They are not the study of math. They are a not a science. They are not engineering. economics is not STEM and grouping it with stem is weird.

Social science is STEM by definition. The S stands for science.

Just because something has science in it doesn’t mean it actually is science. Political science, metaphysical science, spiritual science etc.
