We are the Center for Social Science Scholarship (CS3) at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (Go
Retrievers!). Join us each week as we curate content from UMBC's social science faculty, students, community partners, and visiting guests and lecturers!The Center for Social Science Scholarship promotes excellence across the social sciences at UMBC. Spanning disciplines and programs, we connect scholars who engage in social scientific study—asking key questions about social life, addressing problems of local and global concern, sharing knowledge about public issues, and connecting research to practice and policy.Guided by the core principles of inclusion, equity, and diversity, we encourage intellectual exchange and cross-cutting dialogue as we strive to advance social progress and equity in ways that are critically relevant not only to UMBC but to our local, national, and global communities.To foster high quality social science inquiry, we offer research and grant support, host trainings, promote campus and community events, and provide opportunities for academic as well as public debate, for the benefit of the university and society.UMBC Social Sciences Schools & Departments:Department of Africana StudiesDepartment of American StudiesDepartment of Asian StudiesDepartment of EconomicsDepartment of EducationDepartment of Emergency Health ServicesDepartment of Gender, Women's & Sexuality StudiesDepartment of Geography and Environmental SystemsDepartment of GerontologyDepartment of Global StudiesDepartment of HistoryDepartment of Interdisciplinary StudiesDepartment of Language, Literacy, and CultureDepartment of Media & Communication StudiesDepartment of Modern Languages, Linguistics, and Intercultural CommunicationDepartment of Political ScienceDepartment of PsychologySchool of Public PolicySchool of Social WorkDepartment of Sociology, Anthropology, and Public HealthRetrieving the Social Sciences is a production of the UMBC Center for Social Science Scholarship.
