College Research and Innovation Committee
The Research Committee of the College of Arts, Social Sciences & Celtic Studies provides strategic leadership and oversight of research activity across the College. Its role is to support a vibrant and inclusive research culture by fostering collaboration, promoting excellence, and ensuring alignment with the University’s research strategy.
The Committee advises on research policy and priorities, supports the development of interdisciplinary initiatives, and works to enhance external funding opportunities and impact.
