Our research community conducts world-leading research in social care and social work policy and practice across the life course, funded by a range of bodies including Research Councils (UK Research and Innovation, the Economic and Social Research Council and the Arts and Humanities Research Council), the National Institute for Health Research and a wide range of trusts, charities, and commercial organisations. Our researchers have particular expertise in conducting applied social care research with and amongst some of the most marginalised communities in society.
Most of our full-time research students are based at our Milton Keynes campus; for details of residence requirements for different modes of study see Full-time study and Part-time study.
