School Of History, Classics And Archaeology, University Of Edinburgh Description

The School of History, Classics and Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh is one of the great world centres for the study of the human past.

The School comprises the three subject areas of History, Classics and Archaeology, together with the Centre for the Study of Modern Conflict, the Scottish Centre for Diaspora Studies and the Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Studies.

Excellence
Our research quality in the Research and Assessment Exercise in 2008 was rated top in Scotland and third in the UK for the number of 'world-leading' and 'internationally excellent' researchers.

Our community
We have a vibrant community with around 150 academic and administrative staff, 58 honorary professors and fellows, 300 graduate students and a current undergraduate population of 1, 100 students, of whom around a quarter are international students.

Our building
During the summer of 2010 the entire School co-located to an eight-storey 'A' listed building, designed by the distinguished Scottish architect Sir Robert Rowand Anderson in the nineteenth century. The refurbishment, at a cost of £16m, provided state-of-the-art facilities for staff, postgraduate and undergraduate students.
