At the University of Massachusetts Amherst, the Institute for Social Science Research is on a mission to strengthen the campus' existing social science infrastructure for faculty and graduate student scholars with a variety of programs that are designed to: support the development of methodological skills and tools for social scientists, advance the meaningful participation of social scientists in interdisciplinary collaboration, assist in the development of proposals and administration of funded research projects, and promote the visibility of cutting-edge social science research. Our collaboration included identity development and publication design for their inaugural report.
