Faculties and Deans

All Schools and departments are organised into the University‘s four faculties: Arts, Divinity, Medicine and Science.

Oversight of all Faculties and undergraduate study is managed by the Dean of Learning and Teaching, supported by a team of Associate Deans.

Each Faculty is led by a Dean who provides academic and strategic leadership:

Strategic leadership for the postgraduate community and research is provided by the Provost of St Leonard’s College and two Associate Provosts.
