TORCH | The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities

General information

Based at the historic Radcliffe Humanities Building, TORCH provides an important opportunity for Oxford’s humanities scholars to collaborate with researchers in other colleges, disciplines, divisions and institutions, and to engage with non-academic partners and the wider public. Through provision of seminar rooms, start-up funding, administrative support and publicity, the Centre enables new communities of scholars to generate and develop cross-disciplinary research agendas. TORCH already sponsors nine exciting new research networks, some major research programmes such as environment and the humanities, and seven AHRC/TORCH cultural engagement fellows.
