Oxford's archaeological programme is overseen by the School Committee, our collective decision-making body, with representatives of the broader archaeological community at Oxford. The School Committee holds Research Away Days for researchers at all levels to discuss strategy, enabling individuals to inform colleagues about new initiatives and directions in their own research, and fostering new collaborations. The Committee is supported by a smaller School Board focused on strategic planning, including staffing, infrastructure and major research initiatives.
Our School Officers are listed here.
Our Professional Services team, led by the Head of Administration and Finance Victoria Robson, work across our three main sites (No. 1 South Parks Road, the Institute of Archaeology at 36 Beaumont Street, and the Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art (RLAHA) in the Dyson Perrins building in the Science Quarter).
