Our research stories
From deep history to contemporary economic issues, our researchers explore what it means to be human and how we engage with the world around us.
Humanities and social sciences researchers tackle some of the world’s most complex social, cultural and economic questions.
One of the principal research strengths of Humanities and Social Sciences at Cambridge is our diversity. Our researchers are supported to pursue both fundamental disciplinary study, as well as interdisciplinary initiatives across the School and beyond.

Supporting research
Our School research support teams work across areas including grants, funding, impact, culture, policy and facilitation, to give strategic lift and support to both disciplinary research that is intrinsically linked to the core identities and priorities of our departments and faculties, as well as interdisciplinary research within the School and wider.
Our Research Funding and Strategic Initiatives teams support both the School of the Humanities and Social Sciences and the School of Arts and Humanities at the University of Cambridge. You can find out more about the team, their initiatives and the support they offer on the AHSS Research Funding and Strategic Initiatives website.
