Social Sciences Outreach Initiatives

Social Sciences Outreach is a set of programs supported by the Faculty of Social Sciences that connects our current students and faculty professors with future members of our community like you.

Through our activities, we wish to: 

  • Educate and inspire pre-university students to pursue careers in social sciences.

  • Develop positive relationships between the University and the community 

  • Enhance the student experience for our current undergraduate and graduate students 

  • Recruit undergraduate students by giving them first-hand experiences of social sciences education
