The Centre for Blended Realities (CBR) aligns with Falmouth University’s 2030 vision to be a leading institution at the intersection of creativity and technology. As a research hub, the Centre is committed to both advancing interdisciplinary and practice-led inquiry and leveraging emerging and convergent technologies to shape new modes of knowledge production and dissemination.

Through collaborative, arts based participatory research, the Centre for Arts & Health at Falmouth contributes to critical scholarship at a crucial point in time for our health and wellbeing.

We’re developing and embedding impactful research within interdisciplinary spaces where art, science, technology, community and entrepreneurship collaborate – reflective of the complex elements that constitute health and wellbeing of individuals and communities.

The Centre for Heritage, Culture & Society is an interdisciplinary research centre that uses a critical lens to produce impactful research about people’s relationships with past, present and future places and landscapes.

Combining methods drawn from social sciences and creative practice, our research explores pluralistic, imaginative and innovative approaches to ensuring that all within society can engage with, and benefit from, cultural heritage.

The Centre for Pedagogy Futures (CPF) explores pedagogy as a dynamic and evolving field of inquiry spanning teaching, research, and creative practice. CPF supports critical, speculative, and long-horizon work across theory and practice, recognising that pedagogy unfolds through situated forms of attention, relation, and engagement. The Centre is committed to accessible and inclusive approaches to facilitation across disciplines, inspired by feminist, queer, decolonial, and postcolonial visions for the future of higher education.
