Welcome to the South and East Network for Social Sciences
An ESRC-funded Doctoral Training Partnership
The South and East Network for Social Sciences (SENSS) Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP) is a consortium of 8 leading universities across the south and east of the UK promoting inventive and inclusive social science research training and collaboration
“I am delighted and proud to be the Director of the South and East Network for Social Sciences, an Economic and Social Research Council-funded Doctoral Training Partnership. Our DTP is one of ESRC’s strategic investments to train and develop the next generation of social sciences researchers. Building on the research strengths of eight partner Universities and several external partners, we will develop postdoctoral researchers, postdoctoral fellows and early career researchers. We are building on three pillars: interdisciplinary research that can address the grand challenges humanity is facing, equality, diversity and inclusivity to bring innovation to thinking through differences and finally, engagement that leads to impact in the world of practice. We aim to support our research community and provide opportunities for their personal and professional development.”
