What we do
The Social Sciences Outreach Team deliver a diverse annual programme of outreach and widening participation activities aimed at schools and colleges on behalf of the:
Leeds University Business School
Faculty of Social Sciences
School of Environment
Representing a wide range of undergraduate disciplines, the team works alongside current students, academic and admissions colleagues to provide an extensive range of events that are free of charge. Our activities are designed to showcase the importance of social sciences to both pre-16 and post-16 students, whilst inspiring and supporting them in their progression to Higher Education.
Our programme of activity includes ambassador talks, workshops and subject taster sessions, delivered online, on campus and in schools and colleges across the country.
Many of our activities are targeted, so that we reach and support those students who are underrepresented at university in our subject areas, aligning with our Access and Participation Plan commitments to the Office for Students. Information on the impact of our widening participation activities and initiatives can be accessed in our Annual Report.
