Supersymmetry is a theory which extends our current Standard Model of particle physics beyond its current widely-accepted framework, and proposes a symmetry expressed loosely as a parity or a kind of partnership between two rather different classes of particles, fermions and bosons. While only limited and indirect evidence has been found for its existence, supersymmetry attracts attention because it would solve some troublesome problems in the Standard Model.
Supersymmetry is a unique conjectured symmetry of time and space. Supersymmetry has been a very popular idea among theoretical physicists for decades.

Supersymmetry is a theory that says every fermion (a type of particle like protons, neutrons and electrons) has a supermassive (not sure what supermassive is) partner. Not sure about supergravity either so i think I've just raised more questions.

Superstring theory incorporates supersymmetry, which also allows it to describe fermions. Supersymmetry, of course, is the idea that there exists a corresponding boson for every fermion and a corresponding fermion for every boson. A nice consequence of incorporating supersymmetry is that superstring theory only needs 10 dimensions to be consistent (or without logical contradictions), while bosonic string theory requires 26. The most recent version of the Superstring theory incorporates 11 dimensions.
They are definitely NOT the same. But some of those modern theories seem to imply that there are (or can be) multiple universes.

an extremely massive boson particle, the properties of which impose the masses of all other particles in some versions of supersymmetry theory.
The Higgs is a hypothetical particle required by supersymmetry theory. It is believed to cause the masses of all particles.
