Its secondary aim is to provide a framework for the development of these kinds of interventions in other populations. You will work with the Principal Investigator (PI) Professor Dawn Watkins to support this ambitious agenda; in collaboration with other members of the team based in the School of Law at **MEMBERS ONLY**SIGN UP NOW***., and with Professor Clare Wood in the Department of Psychology at Nottingham Trent University.

Our internationalisation strategy has led to a global network of research and teaching links. We encourage all undergraduate students to spend a year abroad with one of our partners, and we have structured all of our degree programmes to facilitate this.  The School’s civic engagement activities connect it with the city of Sheffield, and with partners in the commercial, public and third sectors, nationally and internationally.
