The three ESRC centres
Find out what is social science and what the three ESRC Centres do
The 2017 Festival of Social Science took place in Southampton on 8-9 November. Over two engaging nights, research scientists at the University of Southampton shared their research and expertise into two challenging issues of our time: migration and ageing.
Hope & hops: the science of society
Our 2017 events - a lively mix of special guests, pub quizzes, hands-on activities and prizes - posed two challenging questions to our researchers:
- Is migration really changing the UK as we know it?
- Will welfare and pensions really ensure we have a happy and healthy retirement?

This free, informal event was organised by the three ESRC-funded Centres at the University of Southampton:
