Social Sciences ConneXions is a collective of 5 research groups located in the Department of Applied Social Sciences at the TUS Midwest campuses. Founded in September 2013, the collective is comprised of: Loss and Grief research group, Engage, EDGE, TAG and VIPER. Please see below for more information about Social Science ConneXions and our research groups.
The aim and vision of Social Sciences ConneXions is to promote social inclusion, provide a voice for those who are not heard, and enrich the body of academic knowledge informing social and community practitioners from a variety of disciplines. With this in mind, we are engaged in collaborative efforts with organisations supporting those who are vulnerable through graduate research projects, media appearances, conference and workshop presentations, publications and community research events.
