Department of Politics, University of Surrey
Discover Politics at the University of Surrey The Department of Politics at the University of Surrey is home to a lively community of energetic minds examining how power operates and how it affects the people it touches. Within The department we offer two MSc programmes and one PhD programme. The Department of Politics has always placed learning and teaching at the centre of its work. We seek to help students develop their own understanding of the world and the tools with which to express that. Given the very wide range of careers that students have gone on to, we recognise that it is not enough to ask for knowledge, but rather understanding and engagement have to lead the way. This means a focus on active learning, where students take the initiative in finding answers to their questions, and on skills development, be that for research, presentation or self-reflection. At postgraduate taught level, politics builds on the diverse experiences of students to give them the specialist knowledge and skills that they will need for their future career choices. With a strong emphasis on student-led sessions, modules probe deep into their particular field, as connecting together to provide a solid base for the final dissertation, where students can demonstrate their abilities in an extended piece of research, or a research-focused work placement, in which students develop a policy-relevant research project within a government or non-governmental institutions. Our academics are all research-active, and the teaching you will receive on our courses reflects those interests, helping to make your work all the more engaged and relevant to current issues and debates. The Department has a very active student body, which organises many academic and social events outside the formal course. With students coming from all over the world, this is an excellent opportunity to meet and challenge each other’s ideas and perceptions.

The Royal Bank of Scotland is one of the retail banking subsidiaries of The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc, together with NatWest and Ulster Bank. The Royal Bank of Scotland has around 700 branches, mainly in Scotland, though there are branches in many larger towns and cities throughout England and Wales. Both the bank and its parent, The Royal Bank of Scotland Group, are completely separate from the fellow Edinburgh-based bank, the Bank of Scotland, which pre-dates The Royal Bank of Scotland by 32 years. The Royal Bank of Scotland was established in 1724 to provide a bank with strong Hanoverian and Whig ties. Following ring-fencing of the Group's core domestic business, the bank is expected to become a direct subsidiary of NatWest Holdings in 2019. NatWest Markets comprises the Group's investment banking arm. To give it legal form, the former RBS entity was renamed NatWest Markets in 2018; at the same time Adam and Company (which held a separate PRA banking licence) was renamed The Royal Bank of Scotland, with Adam and Company continuing as an RBS private banking brand in Scotland, along the same lines as the Messrs. Drummond and Child & Co. businesses in England.

Global Health 50/50 is an independent, evidence-driven initiative to advance action and accountability for gender equality in global health. When we formed GH5050, our collective agreed on a simple principle as a goal. The collective and its work can only be deemed a success when global health policy and organisational decision-making puts a gender lens, gender equality and health equity at the core of all it does. For decades, our collective members have researched, advised, advocated for, published and delivered policies and programmes to promote gender equality and health equity. Global Health 50/50 was borne out of our shared frustration that despite evidence, change wasn’t happening fast enough. Our academic outputs on gender and health were falling on deaf ears. Evidence alone, we knew, doesn’t cut through the noise to change policy and practice. So we decided to change the rules of the game. Global Health 50/50 was formed around a unique model which brings together the rigour of academic research, the knowledge of how policy change can occur and the momentum of advocates and communicators to catalyse progress. Coupled with a high-powered Advisory Council positioned to support this mission, our model is intended to act as a channel to bring evidence and policy together, thus fast-forwarding the pace of change for gender equality and health equity. Our initiative brings together leading feminists, doctors, academics, policy and political experts from all corners of the world. From the former Prime Minister of New Zealand and UN policy leaders, to journalists, advocates and university academics, GH5050 is the most experienced and powerful team assembled to tackle this issue. Meet the team. Global Health 50/50 was co-founded and is co-directed by Professor Sarah Hawkes, Director of the Centre of Gender and Global Health at University College London, and Professor Kent Buse, Director of Global Healthier Societies, The George Institute for Global Health. Global Health 50/50 is registered UK charity (Charity number: 1194015).
Institute of Applied Economics and Social Value
The Institute for Applied Economics and Social Value is a research institute within Leicester Castle Business School at De Montfort University (DMU). Our overriding goal is to develop applied research that uses economic theory and methods to address important societal challenges. Institute members are actively pursuing cutting edge research on a range of issues including sustainable economic growth, political economy of international trade and economic relations, pro-social behaviour and the environmental consequences of tourism and firm innovation. A distinguishing feature of the institute is our cross-disciplinary outlook. With a focus on the issue that needs to be tackled, our work draws together people from across subject boundaries to work collaboratively on applied projects. The Institute also puts particular emphasis on the study of social value. To address societal challenges around issues such as health, education, poverty, housing and the environment, it is essential to measure non-financial benefits and costs, including the effects on wellbeing and health. We aim to become a recognised centre of excellence in the valuation of social impact. Members of the institute have a strong track-record of publishing in leading economics and business peer-reviewed journals. We are also eager to engage with external partners from the private, public and third sector in order to drive transformative societal impact.
