Social Science Plus

Social Science Plus is the Collaborative Social Science Domain's funding scheme that offers £10,000 for a UCL social science led cross-disciplinary (social science and non-social science) pilot project that will lay the basis for a major (minimum £250,000), high quality, research funding application that is competitive and cross-disciplinary.  To date we have awarded over £76,000 to social science PIs based across UCL.
