It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Faculty of Arts and Humanities.
Here, we embrace a wide range of disciplines in the Humanities and the Creative Arts.
Students have the opportunity to study with outstanding researchers, some of whom are attached to our major research centres: the Archbishop Desmond Tutu Centre for War and Peace Studies and the Andrew F. Walls Centre for the Study of African and Asian Christianity, as well as a range of international visiting professors and artists.
The Faculty has an excellent reputation for research undertaken by its staff. Staff are engaged in research in a wide variety of areas relating to the structure and functioning of the Creative Arts and Humanities
Our vibrant and growing Creative Campus, close to the city centre with easy access to the city of Liverpool’s exciting cultural scene, hosts the annual Cornerstone Arts Festival and provides opportunities for students to showcase their work at the annual Summer Show, whilst also drawing on our links with cultural bodies such as Tate Liverpool and National Museums Liverpool.
