Resource allocation project

Review of the resource allocation model

The Faculty of Social Sciences is reviewing how funding is allocated to education, research and premises. The aim is to develop clearer and more sustainable models that will provide strong conditions for the faculty’s activities in the years ahead.

As part of the project, the current resource allocation models will be reviewed and different options explored. At this stage, the work focuses on analysing the circumstances, opportunities and possible directions forward. No decisions have been made. Before any changes are considered, the proposals will be discussed and anchored within the organisation.

This page brings together information about the project, its timetable, answers to questions and the latest updates. The page will be updated throughout the course of the project.

No. The project is currently in the assessment phase and no decisions have been made.

The project may result in changes to the way resources are allocated within the Faculty. Any changes remain subject to future decisions.

It is too early to say. Any potential implications can only be assessed once proposals have been developed.

The aim is for the Faculty Board to make decisions in time for any changes to be introduced from the 2028 resource allocation cycle.
