WELCOME | 7
The University received its Royal
Charter in 1962 with a commitment
to meet the demands of a new
kind of society, economy and
world; today we still live by that
commitment.
Positioned in the top 4% of
universities world-wide; 97%
of our research was judged as
world leading or of international
importance in the Research
Excellence Framework 2014.
Our postgraduate programmes
are designed to provide you with
deep insights and develop critical
thinking in your areas of interest.
Whether you are looking to boost
your career prospectus in your
current field, change career
direction, undertake postgraduate
study for personal interest or
a combination of all three, a
postgraduate qualification from
Keele will help you grow as a
scholar, professional and person.
With our 600-acre campus, where
our students value the strong
sense of community, we deliver
a supportive and welcoming
environment, where every
individual matters and where
academic teaching and learning
can flourish. Uniquely we also
have an Institute of Liberal Arts
and Sciences, which is a hub for
interdisciplinary collaboration,
debate and academic enquiry.
We want to help you to make
the right choice for you. Our
prospectus is just an introduction,
but to really understand Keele
you need to pay us a visit. For
postgraduate students we offer
Open Afternoons, where you can
look around the campus and
meet our academic staff.
“Keele is a forward-
thinking university,
seeking ambitious
students to join us
and be part of the
Keele difference and
make a difference
to the future world
we live in.”
