Our aim here is to show how academics in the College of Arts and Social Sciences (CASS) are working with partners in and beyond the University of Dundee. Public outreach and engagement is something to which the University of Dundee (and CASS) has long been committed. However the extent and importance of the ways in which we collaborate with people – individually, with firms and public bodies outside the University is something we have tended to take for granted.

The case studies in this section capture examples of this kind of activity. Highlighted here are instances where our academic work is making a difference.

‌What you’ll see in the case studies is something of the scope of what we do. Each of our seven Schools is represented.  We have included a number of case studies in our Public Enagagement brochure which you can download here.  Individual case studies from across the Schools can also be downloaded here.

If you’d like to know more, have a look at the websites of our constituent Schools. CASS’s Newsletter, published four times a year also includes reports of public dissemination and impact activities.
