纽卡斯尔大学人文和社会科学学院是暴力历史中心（CHOV）的所在地。与CHOV一起进行项目的博士和研究硕士学生将受益于该小组庞大的国际研究人员队伍
The University of Newcastle's School of Humanities and Social Science is home to the Centre for the History of Violence (CHOV). PhD and Research Masters students who undertake projects with CHOV will benefit from the group's critical mass of established international researchers, who explore all aspects of the history of violence from the early modern modern era to the present. We investigate violence across geographic regions and across time periods. Our common focus is to develop critical understandings of violence across cultures. In the process we seek to redefine how people understood violence and how people engaged with it at various times in human history. Historical studies at Newcastle was rated 'Above World Standard' in the 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) assessment conducted by the Australian Research Council (ARC). The history discipline at University of Newcastle has identified research strengths in the history of violence, but project enquiries are welcome for all related topics outlined by the supervisor's research areas below. CHOV members apply a range of critical approaches to research from a number of theoretical perspectives. Research includes historical, comparative, and international work.
