All colleagues working within the School of Geography and Archaeology share a belief in core values motivating academic practices. Central amongst these we hold to be:
- The ideal that our students deserve the best education we can provide;
- The goal of engaging in evidence-based research in a creative, critical and communicative fashion;
- The embedding of our activities within local, regional, national and international horizons;
- A strong ethical foundation and accountability to wider communities, both within academia and beyond; and
- The notion of collegiality within the School, the College and the wider University community.
These broad research and teaching beliefs translate into the following academic programmes:
- We offer BA., Diploma, M.A., M.Litt and PhD programmes and are proud of our student-centred ethos;
- We offer a broad range of unique, highly relevant and transferable skills which we teach to our students;
- We engage with creative forms of student assessment in the classroom, the laboratory and in the field;
- We provide a thorough research training element within our undergraduate syllabi;
- We consistently attract postgraduate research funding from a diverse range of competitive sources.
