You've read our booklet and watched our TikToks, but have you ever wondered what Oxford Medieval Studies is actually meant to be?

OPPORTUNITY 📯
Applications are now open for the @durham_uni Collections Fellowships and Visiting Fellowships, enabling research across the historic collections of Durham!

In addition to libraries this includes archives, collections of visual and material culture, and architectural assets.
