The people who make up the Life Course Centre are committed to understanding and overcoming the problems of disadvantage, and to helping improve the lives of disadvantaged children and families.
The Life Course Centre’s major resource is our people – our researchers, students and partners.
Our researchers are national and international leaders in their respective fields. They represent the diversity of disciplines needed to address the multifaceted problem of disadvantage. Their shared approaches and expertise in the fields of economics, sociology, criminology, statistics, psychology and advanced statistics positions them on disciplinary boundaries.
