This approach fosters a deeper understanding of complex global challenges.

OSGA delivers world leading, multi-disciplinary programmes of teaching and research across Africa, China, Latin America, the Middle East, Japan, Russia and Eastern Europe, and South Asia.

We are an international leader in high-impact, inter- and multi-disciplinary research with a regional and global focus. The School is dedicated to creating strategic partnerships with top-ranked research institutions around the globe in order to deliver world-leading research that challenges current ideas and theories and explores new ways of understanding and benefitting society.

In order to do this effectively, OSGA has identified thematic priorities that are reflected in our research clusters and hubs which nurture collaboration at all levels.
