Director Professor Ron Geaves,

 The Centre for Applied Study of Muslims and Islam in Britain was formed in 2008 to further the research activities of the Director and to enable him to draw upon his long experience of exploring Muslim religious life in Britain whilst engaging with his vision of a location to work closely with Muslim communities. The activities of the Centre are closely linked to the Centre of Transcultural Studies and Global Cultures.
 
Aims of the Centre
•    Promote scholarly and public understanding of Islam and the life of Muslim communities in the UK.
•    Conduct research on social, cultural and religious developments within Britain's Muslim minorities.
•    Facilitate contacts between those actively engaged in ethnographic research amongst members of these communities.
•    Build, and provide public access to, a comprehensive store of reliable information about these developments and their significance.
•    Provide consultancy services to those whose professional practice brings them into regular contact with members of these communities.
•    Provide training courses to those wishing to develop their competence in ethno-sensitive professional practice.
