Research across the Faculty of Arts and Human Sciences is managed by our Institute for Social Science Research (ISSR). The institute's vision is to develop and maintain international recognition for their innovative research and educational activities in key areas.
Our staff undertake theoretical and applied research with 'real world' impact
In addition to scholarship and text book writing underpinning our teaching, Post-Doctoral research interests in the Law Department focus on Public Law, Legal Theory and Anti-terrorism Law.
Our staff are active in research and present this research at conferences around the country. Some examples of our research include:
Teaching and the learning experience of our students is a top priority. Therefore, the Department is also conducting a series of related pieces of research on teaching and learning and the student experience on offer through our courses. This includes a detailed survey of the circumstances and aspirations of our students across all years and programmes. The outcomes of this research have led to the presentation of a well received paper at the annual conference held by the UK Centre for Legal Education, which is based at the University of Warwick, and have also informed recent further improvements to our courses (such as the extended induction programmes and expanded skills development modules for our LLB programme), as well as being part of the wider debate on legal education between law teachers.
