The university believes that development education, research and policy draw their strengths from both academic studies and reflective on ground practice. In that spirit, our faculty are drawn from both academia and the development sector and engage in collaborative teaching, research, public writing and policy work.

-
Development theories and histories
-
Technology and development
-
Gender in development
-
Adivasi concerns
-
Forest rights and forest-based livelihoods
