About us
Science at Reading covers a broad range of subject areas, including many innovative, cross-disciplinary collaborations. Our four Schools span the human and environmental sciences (archaeology, geography, soil science and meteorology), as well as the physical sciences and technology (construction management, mathematics, computer science, cybernetics and electronic engineering).
Our teaching and research are renowned both nationally and internationally, and two of our subject areas - archaeology and meteorology - have been awarded the prestigious Queen's Anniversary Prize in recognition of their excellence. We have close research links with other Schools across the University and with external organisations, and strong links with business.
