    across the University, as well as with public and private partners via the
    establishment of the Sydney Social Sciences and Humanities Research Centre
    (SSSHARC) and Sydney Policy Lab.
  • Provide space for approximately 300 additional higher degree graduate
    students FTE.
  • Nurture new cross disciplinary research and teaching collaboration.
  • Strengthen the position of FASS as one of the leading faculties of
    humanities and social sciences in Australia and among the leading faculties of
    its kind in the world.

Alison Worland has been appointed as the FASS Project
Director and a governance structure has been established to oversee the
project.
