Research in the School

The School provides supervision for a range of part-time and full-time research degrees and aims to provide students with a supportive and challenging learning environment. 

All School staff are members of the Research Institute for Social Sciences. 

The purpose of Research Institutes is to encourage multi-disciplinary research and consolidate Keele’s standing as a research-led University with a strong tradition of excellence in defined research areas.

As well as overseeing the supervision arrangements for postgraduate research students, Research Institutes foster a high quality, supportive and managed research environment for both individual researchers and teams of collaborative researchers, including postgraduate researchers.

Members of the School are also involved in a range of enterprise activities related to both their teaching and research roles.  Details of these can be found on the websites for the various sections of the School.
