The AMBS Research Committee offers strategic guidance and review of the School’s research environment and activity. This is underpinned by the School’s Research Strategy. The Committee meets monthly during term time.

It is chaired by the Research Director and is attended by the Associate Heads of Research, Institute and Centre Directors and key stakeholders from the University’s Professional Services.

Sabbatical leave is paid leave which allows staff an opportunity for professional development that might not always be possible within the normal course of their academic duties. The Sabbatical Leave Committee meets twice a year to review applications.

It is chaired by the Research Director and attended by each Divisional Head from across the School.

Staff wishing to apply for Sabbatical Leave should first consult the guidance document, before completing the application form.
