The misson of the School of Applied Social Studies emphasises "that quality is best achieved through the pursuit of equality, based upon the principles of student participation, lifelong learning, community involvement and open access". Towards this end the school actively promotes our own initiatives whilst endorsing similar UCC wide initiatives.
