The STEM learning presented here is designed to facilitate the students to possess skills of imagination, collaboration, problem-solving, as well as critical and creative thinking which highly needed in this rapidly changing era. STEM learning aims to combine science, technology, engineering and mathematics by means of connections between subjects and real-world problems. In the empirical facts, however, STEM has only been practiced in natural science, and has not yet been applied to social science. This literature review analyzes the role of mathematics in developing science, both natural science and social science. In conclusion, mathematics can be played as a role in the development of science, both natural science and social science with various conditions.
