The Journal of Research in Social Sciences (JRSS) is a double-blind, peer reviewed, and open access journal devoted to research in the social sciences. It is published bi-annually by the Faculty of Social Sciences, National University of Modern Languages, Islamabad. JRSS aims to promote the culture of quality research in the field of social sciences.

The journal encourages scholarly research in the social science fields of sociology, history, political science, international relations, psychology, anthropology, and other related domains. Its goal is to explore and present novel research-based concepts and practices at the national and international levels. The journal gives social scientists—researchers, educators, and academic professionals—a forum to discuss their creative theoretical and applied research projects in the field around the world. New ideas from both domestic and international scholars are welcome here.  Social science domains accept contributions that break new ground in the prescribed realms of knowledge, start interdisciplinary debates, draw on the newest concepts in education and creative thinking, and develop knowledge through study and reasoning. The journal is constantly striving to achieve excellence by promoting quality research. The Higher Education Commission of Pakistan promoted the journal to ‘CATEGORY, Y’ in 2016 in honor of its efforts and research contribution.
