Many of our courses carry some form of professional accreditation, and our students progress to become teachers and educationalists, policy analysts and policy makers, lawyers and criminologists, writers and media practitioners, photographers and video makers, arts and leisure managers, workers in hospitality and the tourist industries, psychologists and social researchers, environmentalists and urban regenerators, and many other things. All of our courses have links with relevant partners in industry or the professions, through activities such as involvement in course design, validation, accreditation, delivery of teaching, guest lectures and work placements.

The Faculty is organised into six academic departments: Arts, Media and English; Education; Law; Psychology; Social and Policy Studies; and Urban, Environmental and Leisure Studies.
