Humanities and Social Sciences

The School of Humanities and Social Sciences offers postgraduate courses spanning economics, international studies, history and history of art, philosophy, digital news, and English literature. The School operates out of the Buckingham Campus and our central London Campus, where a range of specialist teaching and research courses are available.

An international flavour runs throughout our humanities offerings and is supported by specialised research and teaching centres, including the Buckingham Centre for Security and Intelligence Studies; Centre for United Nations Studies; Institute of International Monetary Research; and the Institute of Sports Humanities.

I’m on a journey to fulfil my own purpose and potential. And Buckingham is the best place for that adventure.
