Discover our Deans
The Faculty of Law, now the School of Law and Social Justice, has been led by a Dean since its establishment. Typically the Dean was also the Queen Victoria Chair in Law, but this has not always been the case. A number of post holders have also held the post on a number of separate occasions.
