The Department of Politics and History is a thriving, interdisciplinary Department in the School of Social Sciences, with 20 full-time academic staff  and a large number of associated staff, including Honorary Fellows.

In the 2008 RAE 75% of our research was judged to be of international standard. The Department of Politics and History employs world-leaders in the fields of modern and contemporary history, British and American politics, international relations, intelligence studies, EU studies and more.

Brunel University prides itself on the quality and the relevance of its academic work. It places great value on its pure investigative research but also values the usefulness of its research to the community at large. Our staff are researchers, educators, and advisors to the government and community.
