ABOUT TATA INSTITUTE OF SOCIAL SCIENCES
The Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) was established in 1936 as the Sir Dorabji Tata Graduate School of Social Work.
The first school of social work in India, the Institute was a pioneering effort, characteristic of the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust.
The Institute subsequently influenced the direction of social work education and social research in India. The year 1964 was
an important landmark in the history of the Institute, when it was recognised as a Deemed University by the University
Grants Commission (UGC) of India. Since then, the Institute has been expanding continuously in terms of educational programmes
and infrastructure.
