About the speaker:

Professor Roger Crisp was in the first male cohort admitted to St Anne’s, in 1979. He studied for Literae Humaniores, the Classics Fellows at that time being Margaret Howatson, Margaret Hubbard, the late Gwynneth Matthews, and Barbara Mitchell. He received his B.Phil. in Philosophy in 1985, and the D.Phil. in 1988, with a thesis on utilitarianism. His first academic post was as a Junior Lecturer at Magdalen, in 1986. After two years at University College as a British Academy Post-doctoral Fellow, working mainly on Aristotle and J.S. Mill, he was appointed to a Fellowship at St Anne’s in 1991.

Most of Professor Crisp's work has been and is in philosophical ethics. He has written on metaethics (on the nature of ethics, its epistemology, and its metaphysics), normative ethics (especially on utilitarianism and virtue ethics), and applied ethics (especially medical ethics, environmental ethics and business ethics; and he is Chairman of the Management Committee of the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics.

We value research not only in contributing to the quality of our teaching and the supervision we give our students, but also in its contribution to the development of law and its influence on legal practice and public policy.

The Faculty was ranked 2nd in the UK by The Times Good University Guide (subject table: Law) in 2008. UCL is ranked 4th in the World University rankings.
