The Humanities in the UK Today: What's Going On? HEPI Report 159
Thain, Marion
Higher Education Policy Institute
UK universities have, historically, been strong in the Humanities as well as other disciplinary areas. So the country is well-placed to benefit from the global shift towards interdisciplinary ways of working. This report looks at the current health of Humanities throughout the UK, in both teaching and research, and uncovers numerous examples of world-class practice. It also raises concerns about recent funding shortfalls and calls for policies that would bolster the position of Humanities across the whole higher education sector, so that the UK can contribute even more to tackling the many problems facing the world. [This report was written with Susan Fitzmaurice, Jo Gill, Jeremy Gregory, Nigel Harkness, Gail Marshall, Murray Pittock and Andrew Thorpe.]
