Big Give is over, but you can still support your favorite programs.

The Social Science Matrix Fund

Thank you for supporting the Social Science Matrix Fund, UC Berkeley’s flagship institute for social scientific research.

Drawing on Berkeley’s comprehensive strength in the social sciences, Matrix offers a collaborative environment designed to promote new interdisciplinary research questions and to incubate creative, new transdisciplinary research programs. Our aim is to adapt, redeploy, and expand Berkeley’s existing research assets to better address the increasingly rapid pace of innovation in research design and to foster the increasingly cross-disciplinary skill sets required to produce cutting-edge, multi-methodological social science. Your support enables Matrix to produce breakthrough research and build bridges to society at large.
