Hosting three Schools and five further departments, the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences delivers a broad range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses across our Chester and Warrington campuses.

School of Humanities

The School of Humanities' primary commitment is to the provision of high-quality taught programmes, fully informed by scholarship and research. The school also attaches great importance to its many and varied collaborative activities (local, regional, national and international), since these conspicuously enrich the provision the faculty is able to offer. The most recent RAE submissions for English, History and TRS have been particularly successful. Departments within this School include:

• English
• History and Archaeology
• Institute of Gender Studies
• Languages and Cultures
• Theology and Religious Studies

Chester Law School

The Chester Law School was established in 2004 and is now an established part of the legal community based in Chester and the surrounding area, with over 300 undergraduate and postgraduate students.
