Management Committee and Advisory Board

CRASSH works closely with the Schools of Arts and Humanities and Humanities and Social Sciences but is independent of any faculty or department. It comes under the School of Arts and Humanities for administrative purposes while continuing to work across both Schools.  The Centre's Management Committee, chaired alternately by the Chairs of the Schools of Arts and Humanities, and Humanities and Social Sciences oversees the policy and management of the Centre, meeting once a term throughout the year.  During 2011-12, Professor Simon Franklin will chair. Advice on specific strategic and policy issues is contributed as required by members of the Centre's Advisory Board.
