Faculty Of Arts (University Of Brighton)
The Faculty of Arts in the University of Brighton is a centre of education in the creative arts, architecture, design and humanities. In 2009 it took its new name, replacing the former Faculty of Arts & Architecture, embracing new subject areas from departments in Literature, Languages and Media.
Subject areas offer study in arts, design and humanities, from short courses, undergraduate level, taught postgraduate and research degrees, MPhil and PhD. Located in the centre of Brighton, the Faculty provides a unique environment in which to study. The Faculty’s Centre for Research and Development (CRD) supports research of international significance and resulted in sixty-five per cent of research in art and design being classified as either 'world leading' or 'internationally excellent'in the Research Assessment Exercise RAE2008. This built on the grade 5 in the Research Assessment Exercise (RAE 2001).
It is also home to significant design and screen archives and hosts the Higher Education Academy Subject Centre for Art Design & Media (ADM HEA). In 2005 it was also recognised as a Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning through Design (CETLD), bringing together the knowledge and expertise of the University of Brighton's The Faculty of Arts & Architecture; The Royal Institute of British Architects; the Royal College of Art and The Victoria & Albert Museum.

Famous quotes containing the words faculty and/or arts:
“Imagination is an almost divine faculty which, without recourse to any philosophical method, immediately perceives everything: the secret and intimate connections between things, correspondences and analogies.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
“The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modelled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
