Research centres

Our researchers' specialist interests collectively encompass a wide range of legal fields. We have a long established research history in Family Law, Legal History and European Law; in addition to these we are also growing strengths in International and Comparative Law, Human Rights, Bioethics, Environmental Law, Criminology, Intellectual Property, Commercial Law, Information Law and Technology Law.

Some of these areas have research centres, groups or networks as outlined below; others are at an earlier stage of consolidated development, yet academics working and supervising others in these fields have also yielded significant results.
