Period-based interdisciplinary centres
The Faculty of Arts and Humanities has four period-based interdisciplinary centres which bring together expertise in research and teaching spanning the Middle Ages to the present day.
The Centre for Medieval Studies and the Centre for Eighteenth Century Studies are based in the historic King's Manor at the heart of the city of York. The Centre for Renaissance and Early Modern Studies and the Centre for Modern Studies are housed in their own dedicated space in the Berrick Saul Building.
Research units
Alongside our departments and centres, Arts and Humanities research expertise at York is clustered across a number of research units.
