Our Departments

Our departments are distinctive in representing both longer established disciplines - such as Philosophy and Theology - and the more recently established disciplines, such as Digital Humanities and Film Studies. A rare combination that affords us rich opportunities for interdisciplinarity collaboration and for social impact, as well as ground-breaking research.
