Staff
The Institute for Social Science has a small team of staff.

We work across campus with our advocates, who are often social scientists leading in particular research areas.
Within the University’s research structures, the Institute for Social Science sits alongside the Faculty of Humanities and Social Science’s two other research institutes:
We seek to engage and collaborate with these institutes, and with other research centres and research groups across the University.
