Duke Social Science Research Institute

About Duke Social Science Research Institute

Since opening our doors in 2003, the Social Science Research Institute has grown to become one of Duke University's six signature University Institutes. With a 21st century space located in the heart of Duke's West Campus, SSRI provides an extensive infrastructure to support undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty in the social sciences.

Company Culture

The Social Science Research Institute at Duke University brings together researchers with interests in problems that cross the various social and behavioral sciences, including problems that connect with the humanities and natural sciences. We promote multidisciplinary collaboration among such scholars as they work on important social issues that are challenging to address fully from within any given discipline.
