Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences
The Amsterdam Institute for Social Science Research (AISSR) within the Faculty of Social and Behavioral Sciences (FMG) focuses on research from a historical, comparative, and empirical perspective on the formation and operation of contemporary societies in mutual interplay. The research institute combines the departments of Political Science, Geography, Planning & International Development Studies, Sociology, and Anthropology. The AISSR provides a doctoral training program for PhD candidates and is an organization for high-quality research, as evidenced by a clear scientific mission and qualitatively good research programs, where national and international research groups collaborate on socially important themes.
