PSU Associations

Social Sciences Universities Network (SSUN)

The SSUN brings together universities from all continents, who have a strong focus on social sciences, to multiply their strength and achieve a deeper societal impact.

The members believe that social sciences provide an essential contribution to scientific and public debate to address the most challenging global problems. While every hard science is undoubtedly important, social sciences can deliver an essential input into the most pressing socio-economic challenges of our times. Using quantitative methodologies, combining and comparing different cultural and political contexts, social sciences tend to be aptly suitable to capture the complexity of a highly interdependent yet highly pluralist global society.

PSU became a member to the launch of the Social Sciences Universities Networks on 5 November 2019 in Rome. The University recognizes the importance of social sciences and the roles they play in addressing the needs of society in the fast paced changes on the on the states and world’s horizon. Degree programs in the social sciences can be melded into a College of Liberal Arts & Sciences at PSU.
