Social Sciences
Our students enjoy a lively and innovative teaching and learning environment in one of the country's very top social science departments where we have long been recognised as an international centre of academic excellence.
All our staff are active in research and able to share a wealth of knowledge and current thinking as well as cutting edge interdisciplinary work. In recognition of our ground-breaking and widely respected work in a variety of areas, we were awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize, one of six held by Loughborough University.
