The Social Sciences Division has launched its Education Strategy for 2025-2030, aiming to enhance diversity, drive academic excellence, and to recruit and retain outstanding students through inclusion, digital innovation, and intellectually stimulating and academically rigorous programmes.
The Social Sciences Division's Education Strategy sets out a clear vision for the next five years to maintain its world-leading status in undergraduate and postgraduate education. The strategy outlines key priorities, including balancing offerings across undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, enhancing digital education, and embedding inclusivity across teaching and assessment. It also solidifies the Division’s commitment to high-quality student support, innovative teaching methods, and expanding access to funding opportunities.
Professor Paul Irwin Crookes, Associate Head of Division (Education), said: “With this strategy, we reaffirm our commitment to delivering world-class education that is rigorous, inclusive, and future-focused. It reflects our ambition to not only sustain but enrich the excellence of education across the Social Sciences Division and create a learning environment that sets the foundations for both students' academic success and future careers.”
These efforts will be enabled and guided by university and divisional committees and in close collaboration with Departments, the Centre for Teaching and Learning, and our students.
