Departments_And_Information_About_The_Departments - Goldsmiths, University of London

Goldsmiths currently has nearly 9,000 students from around the world and offers a broad range of undergraduate, postgraduate, professional and adult education courses. These range from the arts and humanities including design, drama, history, literature, media and communications, music, visual arts, visual cultures; the social sciences – anthropology, psychology, sociology; computing; and education, with interdisciplinary work across all areas. The unifying factors spanning this range of diverse subjects are a liberal and creative approach to teaching, with the emphasis on freedom of thought and expression, and a research-led teaching ethos. Above all, we aim to maximise the benefits that our relatively small size brings, creating a stimulating but supportive atmosphere, in which students know each other, and are known by their tutors.

Goldsmiths carries out world-class research in wide-ranging areas, and is home to over 20 research centres in fields from cultural studies to architecture to drama. The last RAE produced strong ratings with particular success for Anthropology, Sociology, English, Art and Design, Media and Communications, and Music which all achieved 5 or 5*.
